There was a tremendous response to the 2010 Boston Flower and Garden Show after the absence of a major flower show in Boston last year. An unofficial count of those attending is between 70 -75,000 with people coming from all over the Northeast and further to attend.
A total of sixteen arrangements representing three schools of Ikebana: Ikenobo, Ohara and Sogetsu were presented by I.I. members in the 2 entry days. In addition, the Sogetsu school members, Dora Lee, Mabel Nevins and Tomoko Tanaka created a freestanding floor arrangement. Kaye Vosburgh, with the assistance of Gil Moore and Jean Mangiafico created a freestanding arrangement in a Japanese flower cart at the entrance to the Ikebana display.
