We went to Longwood Gardens over the weekend to see what was blooming. Oddly enough it's one of my 3 year olds favorite places (and mine too). Not much going on outside - some crocus, aconite and a very cool Korean rhododendron that had no foilage but beautiful purple blossoms. Inside they were having a big orchid event so I snapped a bunch of photos of some really gorgeous flowers to share...
