VIP attendees had an experience like no other at this year’s Evening in Bloom, the charity preview for the Chicago Flower & Garden Show, presented by Wintrust March 13. The “Flowertales”-themed gala combined flowers, food and fashion in extraordinary culinary presentations and a high-energy floral runway show—dubbed Hort Couture—to benefit Bernie’s Book Bank and the Get Growing Foundation.
