World Association of Flower Arrangers' World Flower Show

Flower arrangements usually fall outside my general interests; however, I decided to attend this one as the advertisements screamed how lucky Boston was to have this show here. There were many beautiful arrangements, but - overall I was not impressed. In part, I was hoping for more earthy and less modern exhibits. The worst part; however, was the lack of variety in flower types - there were maybe 6 different flowers in hundres of exhibits. I was further disappointed when I saw rows of nearly identical displays. The UK, Italy, Japan, and the United States were well represented, but there was not much from other countries.
