The 21st-annual Rochester GardenScape 2012 Flower and Garden Show will be held March 15 through March 18 at the Monroe County Fair and Expo Center, 2695 E. Henrietta Road in Henrietta.
"Everyone gets a little hungry for spring by the middle of March and the area’s top landscapers plan to satisfy visitors’ appetites with a wonderful combination of color and imagination at this year’s event," said show manager Sarah Burchell in a written media release.
GardenScape is a nonprofit that uses show proceeds to help support the Epilepsy Foundation, Cornell Cooperative Extension, the Ronald McDonald House and other public and educational projects.

The GardenScape 2012 poster created by local artist Elaine Verstraete depicts a place setting amid a splash of floral color. Her paintings have been featured on posters for the Lilac Festival, the Corn Hill Festival and the Naples Grape Festival.
In addition to landscape displays, more than 100 vendors will be on hand. Daily seminars also will feature local and national horticultural experts and a Children’s Garden. Special early-bird tours and daily entertainment by local musicians and actors also will be available.
A Taste of Spring special preview party will be held from 5:30 to 8 p.m. on March 15 to benefit the Epilepsy Foundation. Tickets cost $50 and are available only in advance. Buy tickets online at www.epilepsy-uny.org.
