The annual Lyndhurst Flower Show and Antique Show opens Lyndhurst’s spring season with an explosion of color and surprising floral installations April 6 and 7 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. More than a dozen of Westchester’s finest florists design arrangements within the rooms of the historic mansion. New this year will be floral artists creating full-room experiences using Lyndhurst collection items. The result will be the creation of show-stopping scenes and a celebration of spring in every room.
The flower show offers a rare opportunity for visitors to experience Lyndhurst decorated by florists and contemporary floral artists inspired by the natural world. Filled with sumptuous flower arrangements and full-room installations, this year offers an experience unique among flower shows for visitors who will walk through the house at their own pace without a guided tour.
Each floral designer handcrafts a display to highlight and harmonize with the sumptuous interiors of the mansion. This year, Lyndhurst will bring Brooklyn and regional floral artists to Lyndhurst to add a particularly whimsical note to the weekend with installations, floral print gallery and family-friendly floral-weaving activity.
Antiques on the Hudson returns this year with a boutique-style show presented by the producers of the Greenwich Winter Antique Show. The antiques show presents enthusiasts and collectors with the opportunity to shop an array of garden antiques, period furnishings, fine art, estate jewelry, vintage and mid-century design. The show will be held in the Lyndhurst Welcome Center complex in a climate-controlled tent pavilion.
Returning this year is the elegant high tea in the guest cottage hosted by Saint George Bistro and Seasons On The Hudson in Lyndhurst’s unique and charming estate cottage. Travel to the English countryside in this dining room featuring intimate seating, fine china and silver teapots. The menu consists of displays of tea sandwiches, canapes, desserts, and Teagevity Tea. The $150 fee includes food, a glass of sparkling wine, tea, and gratuity, as well as entry to the flower show and antiques show. Seatings are timed and tickets must be purchased in advance.
