Designs by Pinky: Longwood Gardens in May

Last week, Joe and I took a little trip (15 mins. away) to Longwood Gardens. We are so blessed to live so close to it. I wanted to share some pictures we took. Hope you enjoy. Many trees were in bloom.

One of the walkways filled with beautiful flowers.

Joe's favorite: columbine.

Beautiful tulips.

On our walk we came across this guy:)

The Italian garden and fountains.

Water flowing down stairs

the woods is pretty too.

As you enter the conservatory, you see these amazing hydrangea baskets!!!

Shots inside the conservatory.

Hydrangeas...

start as green,

some pink,

all pink!

Caladium

Flowering trees in the distance.

This is the new fountain area that has been under construction for a year or more and will have a grand opening soon!

We really enjoy every season at Longwood. If you are ever in southeast Pa. you should try to get here. It is an amazing place.

XO, Pinky

How gorgeous! I have only been there once and it was during the fall, which was beautiful too - lots of pumpkins! My friend just moved a couple miles from there so I plan on heading back one of these days. I live in NJ so it's only about 2 hours from here. Thanks for sharing your lovely photos!

When I lived in Pa, we had a year long pass to Longwood. MY family lives near by and can't wait to head back there in a couple of weeks! Lovely photos!!!

Oh my Pinky! Great pictures! Longwood Gardens is so beautiful! Lisa Robertson (formerly of QVC) goes there all the time and post videos and pics. If I ever make it up that way I'm stopping by for a visit. Thanks for sharing!
