canada blooms contest

Nothing says “Happy Valentine’s Day” like a bouquet of fresh flowers, and thanks to the folks at Canada Blooms and Pick Ontario, you have a chance at winning a spring-fresh arrangement just like the one depicted above through this very blog!

The perfect pairing, this give-away includes a lovely hand-tied bouquet of Ontario-grown flowers as well as four tickets to Canada Blooms, Canada’s largest flower and garden festival, with an approximate value of $125! Canada Blooms, hosted at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre from March 18 to 22, celebrates the best of Canadian gardens, exploring the tradition of gardening and horticultural excellence from across the country. 

How to win?

Simply answer me this: “What’s your favourite cut flower?”

What florals work best in your interior spaces? How do you arrange them for maximum impact? What vessels work best with that particular type of flower?

Post your response as a comment on this blog, and I’ll choose a winning response on Tuesday, February 10, 2009. Canada Blooms will ship the tickets and arrangement to the lucky winner just in time for Cupid’s arrow to strike. ;)

 

*Contest closes February 9, 2009. Open to all residents of Canada, except those in Quebec. Not open to any Transcontinental Media employees, their families, or any other persons with whom they reside.*

Tickets always make for a great gift, in my opinion. Buy someone a pair of tickets to an upcoming show, and more often than not, they’ll feel obliged to take you as a guest. Nice how that works out, isn’t it?

For only $16 a pop, available throughout December, you can order tickets to the Canada Blooms Flower and Garden Festival online — a thoughtful prezzie for any greenthumb on your gift-giving list. From Wednesday, March 18, to Sunday, March 22, the Metro Toronto Convention Centre becomes a haven for horticulture’s latest and greatest: a staggering six-acres of plantable projects and expert advice just in time for spring seed-selection. What a great stocking stuffer!

Ticket price: $16 each ($18 at the door)
