DelVal Imagines The Year 2150 With Futuristic Flower Show Exhibit

DOYLESTOWN, PA — Students from Delaware Valley University will transport visitors at this year's Philadelphia Flower Show 125 years into the future with its exhibit, "Into The Clouds," which embraces the show's "Gardens of Tomorrow" theme by blending technology with the natural world.

Continuing a tradition begun in 1950, DelVal will participate in this year's show, which unfolds inside the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia from March 1 to 9. The show is staged by the Philadelphia Horticultural Society.

Designed and constructed entirely by students, the DelVal exhibit takes a futuristic look ahead to the year 2150, where digital gardening landscapes redefine the relationship between ecology and innovation. The exhibit features multiple biomes, including a jungle, a desert, and a waterscape, immersing attendees in diverse ecosystems.

Marissa Vasquez, a senior at DelVal, emphasized the immersive experience the students hope to create. "We hope that this will bring people a serene feeling-the same sense of calm that being in these different ecosystems can bring if you were actually there."

DelVal's participation highlights its commitment to hands-on learning in horticulture and
landscape design. The Flower Show provides students a platform to showcase their talents and engage with industry professionals, DelVal alumni, and the public.
