Mantis to Bring Their Best Buds to Philadelphia International Flower Show

Feb. 19, 2010 - PRLog -- February 19, 2010 (Southampton, PA) The power tools that professional landscapers rely upon to produce and maintain some of the most spectacular landscapes in the world are making their way to the Flower Show thanks to Mantis, maker of the famous mini-tiller/cultivator and Official Sponsor of the 2010 Philadelphia International Flower Show. Mantis, a brand of Southampton, PA based Schiller Grounds Care, is partner to some of the top brands in the outdoor power equipment industry - BOB-CAT, Classen, Little Wonder, Ryan and Steiner. Mantis and their buds will pack three Market Place booths chock full of power tools designed to make it easier to transform and maintain landscapes of all shapes and sizes. See lawn care tools that aerate, dethatch, cut sod and seed, leaf and debris managing blowers and vacs, edgers and trimmers that define the shape of your scape, sleek, smooth operating mowers, and, for the larger property owner, you can learn about the hard working, versatile Steiner articulating tractor that can perform over 20 grounds care chores.

Show discount specials are abound by Mantis at the show - 10% off Mantis brand products to all show attendees with an additional 10% discount to PHS Members. Flower Show attendees will get an exclusive World Premiere Sneak Peak of the new Mantis XP Tiller/Cultivator - not available to the public until spring. Attendees can even place advanced orders of the new XP at the show to take advantage of show discounts. All other power equipment will be discounted 10% to PHS Members supported through an extensive commercial dealer network that spans the tri-state area (PA, NJ & DE). A valid PHS Member ID Card is required at time of purchase to attain member discounts. The savings attained from the purchase of a single piece of outdoor power equipment could more than pay for a PHS Membership. PHS Membership funding supports various beautification, sustainability and educational horticultural programs throughout the state of Pennsylvania. For information on PHS Membership visit www.PHSonline.org or become a member during the show.

If you’ve been dreaming of a quality walk-behind or zero-turn riding mower, leaf blower, or just want to create a garden or weed one without the backache, stop by Market Place booths 508, 510 and 512 to take advantage of great show pricing. The 2010 Philadelphia International Flower Show, held at the Philadelphia Convention Center, runs from February 28 to March 7, 2010.
