Toronto, Ont. -- Canada’s fall trade show offers more than leading vendors and hundreds of new products to entice customers. Garden & Floral Expo, produced by Landscape Ontario, offers novice and veteran retailers and designers the products and professional development needed to operate a profitable business. The show will take place Oct. 23 and 24, 2013, in the North Building of the Toronto Congress Centre.

Celebrating 40 years of horticultural leadership, Landscape Ontario continues to produce a trade show with a reformatted program guaranteed to meet industry retailers’ personal and professional needs.

Following last year’s success, the Destination Inspiration Theatre will be brought back for 2013. Featured workshops will include seasonal urn assembly, live cooking demonstrations and information on product trends – relevant to garden and floral retailers and designers.
