This first picture is as you are approaching the entrance. I took ALOT of pictures! I am sorry some of the ones in the conservatory turned out very dark. It was hard to get a good picture in there. I was a little disappointed in the conservatory this year! It has been MUCH prettier in past years, but I hope you enjoy the pics. You can click on any picture to enlarge for a BETTER view!
Walking towards the conservatory.
There are hundreds of thousands of lights at Longwood each year!!!!!
I am so disappointed that this one is blurry. These were my favorite trees, Red and white lights.
Amazing.
Here we are in the conservatory. Let's go on a little tour.
This tree is made of MANY pots of cyclamen!
Another huge tree.
Here is the explanation for the tree in the pics above.
Beautiful red poinsettias!

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place! Thanks so much for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteOooh, pretty! We live about 2 hours from Longwood Gardens - maybe that will be a holiday destination for us some year soon, when our kids are out of the house and our time is more our own. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteHi Pinky,
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous pictures. I LOVE Longwood Gardens! It certainly is a spectacular place any time of year, but especially at Christmas.
Let's make some lunch plans!

Hi Pinky!
ReplyDeleteLoved seeing all those beautiful flowers! I just threw my white poinsettias out, tired of picking up the leaves/bracts everyday.
Looks like a fun trip!
