Roy - the Gardens of Longwood look lovely all decked out in seasonal colors.  If anyone happens to be lacking the Christmas spirit, Longwood Gardens would be a sure fix for getting you in the holiday mood.

Hello ROY:

As Usual, these flowers and displays are just breathtaking, and your **AWESOME PHOTOGRAPHY**  makes me feel as if I am there In Person. How fortunate you are to live So Near to Longwood Gardens. With  over 1,000  acres in size, these gardens  have to be a Magnificent Experience To Behold.  It must take awhile to see the whole garden, because of the area it covers. They must have a large size staff of gardeners, for sure !!!!! 

Merry Christmas To You and Brightest Blessings, too !!!!  MYRNA  :) :) :)

How gorgeous the pics of Longwood Gardens are.  They truly celebrate the Christmas season and thanks so much for sharing.  A friend and I had been at Billy Graham's "The Cove" and it was beutifully decked out.  I'm ashamed to say that I somehow managed to leave the house without my camera!

Curtis:  The Conservatory at Longwood Gardens is a very large facility. Visitors can spend hours in the conservatory in addition to the 1,000+ acres of gardens.
