Training for the Flower Show

I forgot to set the alarm and Roy shook me at 5:38 -- but I was out on my bike at 6:25, even allowing for 10 min sipping coffee at my computer and reading the paper online.
What a great tour group I had! Ladies from a Greenwich CT garden club who'd brought plant entries! One of them entered a hippeastrum 'Gervase,' one of the varieties I have on my windowsill, and hers has THREE FLOWERSTALKS. She better win something! They had peeked at the Flower Show yesterday, enduring the crowds, and were especially grateful for the lebensraum.
This afternoon I meet my sister and my niece at the train station for a second shift. I only took a few pictures this morning, I thought, but that few turns out to be 85 frames. Heaps of stuff will be posted.
This photo is from the exhibition by MODA Botanica. Called "box," it is staged inside multiple shipping containers from all over. It's at once a meditation on the global interconnectedness of their business and on a variety of urban landscapes. This one is called "urban jungle."
P.S. My knees held out better this morning, but now I'm a little stiff. Well...more ibuprofen and a bike ride back to the Convention Center should help.
