Longwood Gardens Botanical Garden - Spring 2011

The 1,077 acres of gardens, woodlands and meadows known as Longwood Gardens is located in southern Chester County, Pennsylvania, not too far from Philadelphia and Wilmington, Delaware.

The arboretum was once the home of industrialist Pierre S. du Pont and people have been allowed to visit the incredible displays even prior to his ownership, since about 1798.

Each season brings new life and spendor and the management and staff at the gardens go to great lengths to provide visitors with a fabulous experience.

Below are samples of Longwood Gardens during the spring.
