COLOGNE, Germany — Spoga+gafa, the world’s largest trade show for gardening, outdoor furniture, equestrian and barbecues, is on now in Cologne, Germany. The historic city’s fair complex alongside the Rhine has drawn 40,000 people domestically and from abroad. The show features the latest trends in outdoor living, furniture and tools, urban gardening and grilling over two million-plus square feet of exhibition space.
Innovations include a patio set in a box, high-end and high-tech barbecues, outdoor furniture sized for children (a big market here) and products for creating “living walls” of plants.
