Orchid Extravaganza

Longwood Gardens has been tempting me with their Orchid Extravaganza for several months, and after an incredible visit this weekend, I can say that it is indeed an extravaganza, of many flower varieties, and not just orchids. I think I'll just stop typing and let photos speak for themselves.














These photos just barely begin to show the beauty, scope, and magnificence that is
 Longwood Gardens. It was one of the best weekends I have had in a long time,
and I hope you get the opportunity to visit sometime and
enjoy the spectacular experience yourself.

  1. Longwood Gardens is right at the top of my list of Gardens-I-MUST-Visit. (I've wanted to visit for so very long. . . ) What a wonderful, inspiring place to spend a weekend. Thanks for sharing. (Sigh.)

  2. Longwood Gardens is so amazing! The most recent time we were there was for their Christmas display, and wow! Between there and Winterthur, this place does not lack inspiration ...

  6. Amazing... they are spectacular flowers! I visited the botanical garden in Rio de Janeiro and they had a beautiful orchid house, but we also spotted them growing in trees "in the wild"!
