Victory in Every Bloom: The "Oh, the Games People Play!" Flower Show

Welcome, Information & Entry Forms

     Welcome to the Tampa Garden Club’s annual NGC Standard Flower Show—a celebration of creativity and community spirit. "Oh, the Games People Play!" reimagines competition as the creative challenge of floral design and horticulture. Our exhibits celebrate the patience and artistry of gardening while educating the community on plant identification and environmental stewardship.

     This show is the result of a year of dedication, featuring expert-led workshops and tireless committee work since last May. Huge thanks to our educators, chairmen, and volunteers for their passion and coaching. We hope these "games" inspire your next garden triumph!
