palmsOrl 1,483 Report post Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) I am visiting my parents in PA for a few days and we made a stop to Longwood Botanical Gardens in SE Pennsylvania outside of Philadelphia. It has to be among the nicest botanical gardens out there. I have a large number of photos to share, but I will leave you this one photo, taken in the conservatory for now.

Matthew92 867 Report post Posted November 14, 2015 (edited) Conservatory palms always look so perfect not being bothered from wind- love it. Here's one from the Missouri Botanical Gardens Conservatory (called the "Climatron"): they have a gorgeous to-die-for royal palm in there with a brown looking crownshaft.
