Herb Wreath at Longwood Gardens

A Longwood Christmas is an annual event at Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania.  If you enjoy flowers or flower photography, you will want to visit Longwood Gardens during the holidays.

This wreath is made of all natural materials and all herbs.  Those that enjoy cooking, will readily be able to identify the materials.  Those that enjoy making wreaths may good some good ideas from this one.

Longwood Gardens is one of our favorite travel destinations and Dolores and I recommend that you include Longwood Gardens in your travel plans.

Please share photographs from your favorite places in the comments for this post.  Be sure to have your camera in hand to capture those special moments during the holidays.

Happy Holidays!  Happy New Year!

Roy, I bet that smells delicious and really adds a wonderful aroma to a home. I think I would keep it inside not outside though.

Hi Roy, I hope your  was wonderful. One of my client's daughters was making one of the natural herb wreaths today. I suggested Verbena as a dried substance that would add a little extra fragrance.She went out looking for it, lol

Thats a neat idea. When they dry out can you use them for cooking? Or is the drying process different to get good spices?

Roy, gardening in a wreath. I like it. It would never work for me.....I could never get it all to stick in there. Lovely wreath and lovely idea. I made David come over to look at your flowers. They are so wonderful. You keep Dancing with Your Beautiful Flowers, my friend. You inspire me always. Can't wait for this contest to be over so I can get back to my photography! Happy New Year to you and to Dolores! Be Happy!

It is sometimes interesting to revisit old blogs and reblogs. We might even find some good ideas for current posts.
