Macy's Flower Show runs from March 25 - April 7, from 10am to 9pm
Macy's is a well-known chain of mid- to high-range department stores (over 800) in the US. It was founded in 1858. Its flagship store is located right here, in Herald Square.
Macy's has played a role in New York City's culture for nearly a century. Since 1924, it has produced the annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and the City's annual Fourth of July fireworks display since 1976.
Each spring 5 Macy's stores throughout the US, host a Flower Show. Here, in New York City, Macy's celebrates the blossom of Brazil in an outdoor show entitled: "Gardens in Paradise"
As its website describes: "Bursting with color, excitement and energy, our Flower Show is like taking a walk through Brasil itself! Experience the vast, lush wonders of the Amazon rainforest as you walk by towering palms, tropical plants and exotic birds. Take a trip to Brasil – no passport required! Step into our Gardens in Paradise and be swept away to a bold, lush, tropical world inspired by the vibrant plants and flowers of Brasil..."
