Longwood Gardens

 Who among us doesn’t love walking among exquisite fragrant flowers, streaming water, and towering trees where nature is at its best…sound, movement, texture, color, and line all merge in a magnificent horticultural display.

 I would like to share with you some photos from my recent trip to Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania. There you’ll find acres of outdoor plants, in addition to the beautiful indoor gardens. A great American gem. Enjoy!
