Longwood Gardens Conservatory - Roy and Dolores Kelley Photographs
When we experience cold winter days in Montgomery County, Maryland, it is a good time to think about places to go that are warm and colorful. Longwood Gardens, located in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania, just west of Wilmington, Delaware is close enough for a day trip. This month, the Conservatory at Longwood Gardens is the location of their annual Orchid Extravaganza and the place to enjoy beautiful orchids and thousands of other flowers and plants.
If you live in the area, take your family on a day trip, with cameras in hand. If you live in another part of the country, add Longwood Gardens to your places to visit on vacations.
Be sure to have your camera in hand to capture the special moments in your community or during your travels.

Roy: You and Dolores have a way of brightening up my morning with your near-daily array of beautiful flower photos.
Neat orchids. Still partial to wild flowers that you and I or the greenhouse had nothing to do with their natural, don't need make up home grown beauty.
Roy, lovely orchids and I agree with Anita, your flower photos will brighten up any morning...my fav is the yellow orchid.
Roy ....I feel like I've already been there hundreds of times ...thanks to your amazing photos!
Have a great day!
Good Thursday morning to all. Dolores and I enjoy every trip to Longwood Gardens and recommend that you plan a visit when you are in the area.
Be sure to have your camera in hand to capture the special moments in your community or during your travels.
You really capture the beauty of these orchids. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your day!
Roy~I think orchids are really cool. I appraised a house once where the gentleman had his basement set-up to grow orchids. He hand hundreds of them, it was a full time hobby.
Have an awesome day!
I always enjoy a walk through your flowers each day! So gorgeous! Thanks for sharing them with us.
Roy, Beautiful flowers for this snow covered day! I wish I could get to Longwood Gardens but it is tax season for my wife. No time until April 15th! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much for your comments. We had enough snow to make the grass white but not enough to cause any major problems.
If you enjoy orchids, watch for the orchid shows in your area if you can not visit Longwood Gardens
Roy there is something regal about that first white orchid. Isn't it just beautiful? You're right to visit Longwood Gardens would cheer up any winter day. Say hi to Dolores for us!
Roy, I bet the folks at Longwood Gardens love seeing you and Dolores. Your orchids are beautiful.
Thanks for stopping by. It is always good to hear from you.
Roy hope you and Mrs. Dolores enjoy a colorful day and keep that camera close at hand.
Good Morning Roy, that sure does sound like a fantastic day trip, i wish it was closer. Those are some wonderful pictures that bring that dream of spring that much closer. It will not be long now.
Roy, when I was out showing houses yesterday, I thought of you. Here's why:
Roy,
I love Orchids I will have to look for an orchid show. I will probably visit Cornelius next week on my days off they always have lovely things to behold. Have a great week!
Roy - thanks for bringing Longwood Gardens to all of us who live too far to visit for ourselves. Your photos just keep getting better and these Orchids look gorgeous, but then again no one takes better flower pictures than you! Have a great day!
Thanks so much for your comments. Visits to Longwood Gardens are well worth the trip. This is a world class destination. There are also many other things to see and much to do in the Brandywine River area.
Hi Roy, Great pictures, Our home and garden show runs starts this Saturday and runs for a week, not sure which day I will be down there yet.
Roy, Very nice photos of the orchids! It is a good thing to have a warm place to go during the cold winter months! Have a great Thursday!
Roy - Oh my goodness! These orchids are beautiful. Seeing them would brighten any day:)
Roy- thank you for bringing us this dance of flowers, and I especially love the last one. Your photos are crisp, clear and real.
Good Thursday evening to all. Have a great Friday and an outstanding weekend.
Hi Roy, This is a really a nice selection from their orchid collection and your photos are wonderful.
Orchids are beautiful and they make such awesome photos. What a wonderful flower.
Good Friday morning. Have a great day and an outstanding weekend.

I like the orchids. They sure have gotten easier to grow over the years.
