Experience the Magic

A tunnel of elegant, otherworldly warmth awaits, illuminated by nearly 20,000 bulbs.

More than 1,000 Hippeastrum 'Mystica', floating trees in gold and white, towering columns of Echeveria, and 40 white Phalaenopsis baskets grace the new West Conservatory.

The new Bonsai Courtyard greets its first A Longwood Christmas with artfully placed bonsai and an icicle-inspired tokonoma display.

Enjoy festive lights and music in our Main Fountain Garden.

Our miniature model trains rumble through a beautifully landscaped setting during regular Gardens hours, weather permitting.

Open Air Theatre fountains dance with holiday color and classic Christmas music.
