Colors of December at Longwood Gardens 12/30/11

A Longwood Christmas, an annual event and exhibit, draws large crowds to the expansive Conservatory at Longwood Gardens.  The flower, plants and trees are wonderful to see and Dolores and I recommend a visit.

With over 1,000 acres of gardens, there are still a few flowers to be seen outside as well.  These photographs were taken when I went to see the Longwood Railway exhibit.

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.

Happy Holidays!  Happy New Year!

I really enjoy the way you put flowers in your comments. I look forward to your comment visits because they pretty up my posts so much. I like the pink poinsettia you did at Christmas. It was breathtaking.

Roy - this is my all-time, favorite photo you've ever taken and one of the best flower photos I've ever seen. You're still getting better and I think semi retirement has been really good for us at Active Rain - you've treated us to some amazing photos!

This photo should win some kind of award! It's spectacular and I'm experiencing photo envy - lol. You've inspired me to get outside with my camera over the next couple of days! Happy New Years to you and Dolores!

Roy,

Longwood's 1000 acres of gardens sound remarkable. Sounds like a Disneyland for flower lovers. SC
