Flower pictures from Longwood Gardens

Flower pictures from Longwood Gardens

We have a beautiful sunny morning in Maryland. We went to home shows on Friday and Saturday and I spent some time in the garden department of Lowe's. Everybody is thinking about spring and many are buying flowers to plant in their gardens. The wonderful displays of flowers and plants at Longwood Gardens provide a spring preview. The current exhibit is Orchid Extravaganza. It is well worth the trip to Kennett Square, Pennsylvania to visit Longwood Gardens. www.longwoodgardens.org  

Please share photographs from your favorite places in the comments for this post.

Hello, Roy, I had to stop by for my colorful flower fix this morning.  These are WOW!  Do you ever enlarge and frame any of your flower photos?  They are so beautiful and would make great gifts as well as great for note cards.  Your signature note cards...would be great.

Good morning to all. Have an outstanding week. No, Barbara, I have not made prints of any of the flower pictures. It would be good to find a commercial use for them.

Hi Roy - These pictures were taken at Longwood Gardens?  I thought for sure you snuck your camera into the garden department of Lowe's!  : )  Another unbelievable batch of amazing photos!  Thanks so much for sharing these.

Hi Chris. I did take a few pictures at Lowe's but they have not been posted. I have hundreds of Longwood Gardens pictures. Generally, the flowers at Longwood Gardens are in much better shape that what we find at Lowe's garden shop. It is hard to beat the quality at Longwood Gardens.
