Longwood

My daughter was visiting from Oregon and we decided to take a garden adventure to Longwood Gardens and record it in pictures for all you folks! It was an overcast, light drizzle kind of day and all the plantings looked super lush as a result. So come along with us and we’ll take you on a tour of Longwood in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania! This is just a small sample, I’ll have to go back later in the year for special events (especially the nightly light installations by Bruce Munro) and more of the Conservatory, estate and grounds.
