Photos: Colorado Home and Garden Show

Part ocean-themed flower garden, part home accessory extravaganza and all Colorado, The Home and Garden Show opened this weekend at the convention center, beginning its annual nine-day run. Showcasing energy-saving windows, indoor waterfalls, chimineas and geothermal heating options, the expo helped connect over 600 vendors and contractors with do-it-yourselfers and browsers.

But between the worm-composting booth and marble bath displays, we found some stranger things — like fried donuts, bizarre winter wear and 4-H-style produce and flower sculptures. Enjoy this photo tour of the Home and Garden Show, and check it out in person through February 20.
