For over twenty years, I have gone each spring to photograph the peak tulip displays at Longwood GardensĀ in the Brandywine Valley of Southeastern Pennsylvania. Since I cannot go this year, I am consoling myself with all my Longwood Gardens spring photos. I am sharing some of my best to brighten up your spring day.

Happy spring and stay safe.

My favorite time of year – when both the daffodils and the tulips are blooming.
Stay safe.

I love foxglove flowers and have tried to grow them, but we do not really have the right conditions here in southeast PA. They like cooler weather and we get hot and humid pretty quickly in summer. Here at Longwood Gardens they start them early and grow them in their greenhouses under the appropriate environment.
Happy spring and stay safe.

It’s ok to be feeling a little blue right now – just like this spring anemone flower (photographed at Longwood Gardens a few years ago). Staying home today means I can enjoy spring next year to its fullest.
Stay safe.

How to experience spring in the Brandywine Valley gardens.
I absolutely love spring in the Brandywine Valley of southeastern Pennsylvania and northern Delaware. At this time of year I don’t need to travel because I am surrounded by some of the most beautiful gardens in the country. Starting in March and continuing nonstop through May, the gardens that were formerly part of DuPont family estates glow in a riot of vibrant colors as a succession of blooms brighten the landscape and my spirits with them.
