So the reason we were at the gardens so late is that they were having a night lights display, which was stellar. They had all these different sort of fiber optic lights set up in different areas. I wish my camera hadn't died halfway through otherwise I would've gotten a bunch more photos. But it was cool to be in the woods and see hundreds of lit spheres through all the trees. It sort of made me feel like I was in the movie Avatar! Well worth a visit if you're in the area.

The number of beautiful and wonderfully fragrant flowers there is just impressive. I've seen some that I had never even heard of before. I absolutely love honeysuckles, the silly vine they are, but they had ones that were hot pink on the outside and faded into a regular honeysuckle color. And roses of all sorts of hybrid shades. Definitely the place to go if you're interested in flowers or picturesque areas.

One of my favorite things to do when I go to visit is go to Longwood Gardens. I love the different types of installments and garden components that they have. The last time I went was in the winter where they had the Christmas trees and lights up. But of course it was a bit too cold to wander the gardens. So it was nice to come during the warm weather and see everything that the gardens had to offer.
