Macy's 33rd Annual Flower Show, which bursts into bloom throughout the Herald Square store during the first two weeks of April. Read on for event listings, exclusive photos and a behind-the-scenes look at "Flora Exotica."

MEET ME IN THE GARDEN

Macy's Flower Show executive producer Robin Hall welcomes you to "Flora Exotica," Macy's 33rd Annual Flower Show.

FLORAL FANTASY
Uma Thurman, Laurence Fishburne, Donna Karan and Donald Trump are among the celebrity clients of event designer Preston Bailey. He's one of six world-renowned artists to have his work displayed in Macy's Herald Square as the "Bouquet of the Day."

A TALL ORDER
Normally, the Bronx Zoo is the only place locally where you can gawk at a giraffe. But two 14 1/2-foot flower versions are temporarily standing tall above the main aisle of Macy's Herald Square store.

A GIFT OF A GARDEN
The city's 600 community gardens are sublime sanctuaries for many of us. A replica of one of these havens will line the 35th St. aisle as one of the specialty gardens featured in the show.
