HAPPY DECEMBER

Here are two photos for you today..  Both were taken on our latest visit to the Biltmore House and Gardens in Asheville,  North Carolina on 11/20/16.   I enjoy walking through the conservatory at Biltmore and seeing all of their gorgeous Christmas Pretties on display.

The header shows some of that beauty.   The picture above shows one of the pretty wreaths on one of the big doors at Biltmore.  Do you like wreaths?  I love seeing all of the unique ones at Biltmore...  Gorgeous.

Hope each of you will have a fantastic December this year...  Blessings to you!

Be sure and check back on Monday (12/5/16) and see more pretty pictures from Biltmore on my main blog,  Joyful Reflections..  Click HERE.

Water Lilies and Lily Pads from Biltmore House and Gardens, Asheville, North Carolina

This is a great picture showing all of the colorful LILYPADS surrounding the Water Lily in my header.... I'm not sure which I like the best:  The Lily OR the Lily Pads!!!!   What do you think?

Both of these pictures (the one above AND the header) were taken at the Biltmore House and Gardens in Asheville,  North Carolina.

Hope you are doing fine!!!!

Hugs to ALL,

Everything is Coming up PURPLE

Welcome to April!!!!!  I cannot believe that time is marching by SO fast...

Today's photo was another one (along with my header this month) taken on our latest trip to Biltmore House and Gardens in Asheville,  North Carolina.

Biltmore does SUCH a great job with all of their seasonal gardens.. We try to get there 3-4 times a year to see different flowers in bloom during each season.  This time,  we saw lots of Daffodils,  Hyacinths,  Crocuses,  Pansies and Tulips blooming in the walled garden. We'll go back soon to see the Azaleas and more Tulips.

I loved the way they put all of the purples together.. I'm not sure I have ever seen prettier hyacinths.

Have an awesome month!

Hugs,

Christmas at Biltmore

Merry Christmas and a Blessed December to YOU.  These two pictures (this one and the header) were taken at the Biltmore House and Gardens,  Asheville,  North Carolina on 11/23/15.

Have a wonderful month.

Azalea in OUR Yard,  taken on 4/23/15

My header features the beautiful Azaleas at the Biltmore House and Gardens in Asheville,  NC.   THIS photo shows one of several small Azalea Bushes and Blooms  in our yard.  We love Azaleas but our small ones don't hold a candle to the ones at Biltmore.  However,  they are still pretty!!!!!

Have a great MAY.  And don't forget to click HERE for my main blog post.

Visit to Biltmore House and Gardens, Asheville, North Carolina 3/23/15

WELCOME to APRIL.  Here's a photo of a beautiful HIBISCUS bloom which I captured  when we visited Biltmore on 3/23/15.  I really like this color ---and don't think I  have seen a Hibiscus this color... What do you think?  Do you like it?

Hope you enjoyed seeing both the header (Hydrangea) and this picture of the Hibiscus... We love to visit Biltmore during all of the different seasons... We hope to go back when the Azaleas are in bloom --and also the Tulips.
