The 2026 Art of Floral Design Competition
Take a stroll through the beauty of the 2026 Art of Floral Design Competition at the 5th Annual Tri-County Home & Garden Show. Discover stunning floral creations designed by talented local florists, each showcasing their own unique style, creativity, and craftsmanship. The competition will be judged on Friday, August 14, and all floral displays will remain on exhibit throughout the entire weekend.
Grab a cocktail, coffee, or snack as you wander through the floral showcase, admire each designer's work, and gather inspiration for your own home or upcoming special event. Many of the participating florists will have their business cards alongside their arrangements, making it easy to connect with local florists for weddings, celebrations, or everyday floral needs. After exploring the competition, continue your day shopping hundreds of home and garden exhibitors, chatting with local gardening experts, and attending free gardening workshops—all included with your admission.
