11 Futuristic Floral Designs From the 2025 Philadelphia Flower Show

The nation’s largest horticultural event returned with the theme "Gardens of Tomorrow."

Robertson’s Flowers & Events scored the second-highest amount of points in the Floral category with its exhibit, 'Tending Our Roots.' The design takes inspiration from the proverb, 'One generation plants the trees; another gets the shade.” The 'tree of life' figure in the center is drawn from a real-world park in Singapore focused on sustainability and is meant to symbolize the efforts of the current generation in planting seeds for a future filled with environmental benefits. Beneath the canopy is a cityscape 'where our roots connect us through a common weave under the promise of a shared sunrise,' the Robertson's team shared on social media.
