"Gardens of Tomorrow invites us to envision a future where our actions today nurture a healthier planet," Seth Pearsoll, vice president and creative director of the Philadelphia Flower Show, said in a release. "Through the simple act of gardening and planting trees, we plant seeds of hope for a greener future. The 2025 PHS Philadelphia Flower Show highlights the transformative power of plants and inspires us to create a beautiful, more resilient future together."
