The show's 65-75 seminar speakers include garden writers, authors and garden design experts from around the US, Canada, and UK.

The show was started in 1989 by Duane and Alice Kelly, remaining in the downtown Seattle Washington State Convention Center ever since. It was the first large public event ever held at the Convention Center.[citation needed] Duane Kelly said he was inspired to start the show by his visits the mid-1980s to the large flower shows in Philadelphia and Boston, and by his own interest for gardening and the theater. Portland-based O'Loughlin Trade Shows took over production after buying the show from Duane Kelly in 2009. Ohio-based Marketplace Events acquired the show in June 2018.[3]
