Philadelphia, PA - For the first time in its history, the 2021 Philadelphia Flower Show is being held at the historic Franklin Delano Roosevelt Park (FDR Park) in South Philadelphia. Given the pandemic, the move allows PHS to present the show safely at the height of the gardening season and with the outdoors' added health benefits.
