This week, we’re looking at the arrival of much of the Flower and Garden Festival at Epcot! Are you ready for Spring, because it’s bustin’ out all over.

Welcome to Epcot!!
It appears that over the last week or so, Spaceship Earth has gotten a much needed bath!
This was really, really needed, seeing as this is the park icon and all.
As I mentioned at the top, Flower and Garden is on its way in, as the festival starts on March 5th.
Flower beds and floating beds in Future World.
The ‘Outdoor Kitchens’ are also up in World Showcase, along with many of the merchandise locations.
Some of the topiaries are also in place, like here in Norway and China.
More booths in Germany.
The Snow White topiary set in Germany received a nice upgrade this year, and the detail on these particular topiaries is rather striking. I hope that some of the ones that have not been placed yet turn out like these.
Really good stuff.
For lunch, we ate at Via Napoli, which is one of my favorites restaurants at Epcot. You can almost always get a walk up, no ADR needed, and the food and service are great.
More booths set up.
These planters are blocking work in between Morocco and France.
The dancing prince and princess topiaries are back.
Soon Canada will be much more colorful than this.
And one last parting shot of a clean Spaceship Earth to wrap things up for this week.
What do you all think of Flower and Garden prep? Happy SSE got some needed TLC? Let us know in the comments!!
