We will be checking out of WDW 2nd March, I see the Flower and Garden Festival begins 5th March..... Guess I will plan our last day for Epcot in hopes to see the gardens and flowers all set up!

Anyone in Epcot? Are the displays going up yet? Wondering how much will be in place when we are there late Feb.

The display go up in early March. Temps in Jan and Feb are too low for a lot of the plantings.

Here is a look from a previous year when they first began to appear on 2nd March.

If you are leaving before it begins, you will see very little...but you might see a little. I hope so!!

Although it begins in March (after you leave, sadly), it just keeps getting prettier as spring rolls along.

Flower & Garden is the prettiest time of the year. I just love Epcot during F&G and hope you get to see even a bit of it!

It starts March 5th this year, just figured they would have to start putting things up sometime in February to have it already by early March. Guess we'll see when we get there.

They do most of the work overnight. I watched a "Behind the Scenes" short film at F&G a couple years ago. So you won't see many (or any) displays prior to March 5.

There is very little done (in public) before it actually starts. I hope you get to see even a very little, though.

I had been wondering the exact same thing since we are leaving the same time as you. Oh well, I suppose some year we will get to see it all!
