These are just some of the other fountains, paths and structures that we encountered throughout our day at Longwood Gardens.
These are the main fountain displays for the estate. They run at intervals throughout the day in a fountain display that is gorgeous. There are wonderful views of it from the main conservatory area.
This is our other favorite spot. Taking photographs of the hidden gazebo. While we were here, we met the most wonderful couple who were there, like us, to take pictures of this beautiful spot. We do have a tendency to linger here.
The annual walk and fountain. This is a path that leads you to view a variety of mass annual and bulb plantings. Always a huge punch of color and textures.
The fountain in the woods. This spot almost looks like a runway with a fountain at the end. A single straight up shot of water. We like it here to sit and rest on one of the many benches they have along this strip. It is very inviting.
Both of these pictures are along side of grass and gravel paths through the woods.
Above is a water fall that feeds the Italian garden fountains below. Although I find the Italian Water Fountains a little to formal for my taste, it is nonetheless most impressive. The water fall that feeds this exhibit does draw my attention.
This is a treehouse that we stumbled upon. This is a new exhibit this season. I liked this treehouse and if it were finished inside, other than for a treehouse/play area, I could actually live in this!!!! Except for those steps.

We spent the day there and took almost 300 pictures so this is just a small spattering of the images we have this time.

I have to get back to Longwood Gardens. Trouble is it may give me more ideas and more plants are not what we need ;)
that treehouse is awesome!
Hiya,
I agree. Maybe not so much awesome as very pretty indeed. And I could live in it too. Very covetable, if there is such a word ;-).
Nice reportage of your visit. Lovely blog in all.
