Seattle's Garden Show took place on Feb 18 - 22, 2009.  Taking a trip to visit the show on Feb 18th.  It turned out to be a full day of inspiration by walking around the display gardens and taking in a few speakers.  The Gardens to me had a very "West Coast" feel to them, incorporating nature, using old logs as water features, natural rockery and planting surrounding.  The two favorites of the display gardens were Shapiro Ryan Design, and Rebecca Cole Design & Smith Hawkins.
