New England Spring Flower Show will end its 137-year run, according to The Boston Globe. The 2009 show has been canceled, though its sponsors hope to stage two smaller events next year. Betsy Ridge Madsen, president of the board of trustees of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society told the paper that financial difficulties and the slowing economy forced them to call off the show, which in previous years attracted more than 100,000 people.
