    This appears to be from March 14-21, 1918 International Flower Show at Grand Central Palace in Manhattan. Mrs. Arthur Scott Burden was Chairman of the Decorating Committee for the Red Cross Garden Theatre at that show.

    Probably from the 1915 International Flower Show: "The Second International Flower Show, with which The Horti- cultural Society of New York has been directly connected, was held in the Grand Central Palace, March 17 to 23, in cooperation with the New York Florists' Club. [...] The Red Cross Tea Garden was the big attraction. An account of the arrangements for this, including the composition of the var- ious committees in charge of the work, was given in the Febru- ary issue of this Journal. Mrs. W. K. Draper, the chairman, and Mrs. Belmont Tififany, the vice-chairman, were indefatigable in their efforts to make a success of the undertaking, and they succeeded wonderfully. ]\Ir. Wm. A. Delano designed and arranged the Tea Garden. The council of The Horticultural Society of New York awarded him a gold medal in appreciation of this. The Tea Garden was taxed to its capacity, people being turned away for want of room. Arrangements for dancing were pro- vided, in connection with the Tea Garden. " Another account: select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F20E15FF3E5F1773... Mentioning the assistance of "young society girls"
