I'll be making this one into a pillow.

Christmas at Longwood

 

Longwood Gardens

Clearly, we have been very busy since we arrived back in PA on October 5.  Much too busy to post on the blog.  But today rates a post since we finally made it to the new, improved Longwood Gardens.  The new section opened this week so we really wanted to see it.  As members we could have gone before it opened to the public, but we both ended up with Covid when we had planned to go.

We started in the new section, which is fabulous and which had few Christmas decorations.  I was looking forward to the Cascade garden, which employed many of the rock arrangements from the original one, but which is now housed in its own building.  Lots of water and lots of bromeliads.

The new conservatory has lots of other interesting plants.  This photo shows the large palms they managed to get into the building.

I'll share some of the Christmas decorations in the next post.
