Biltmore blooms









There are different blooms to see every time you go to the Biltmore. The azaleas were in prime time - the tulips were so dead. Guess they need to tell their security guards that. My mom did ask him what was in bloom. He said the tulips were. nope ...they were gone. very sad. very pretty!! enjoy!! We had a ball on our trip April 21-22. Beth ( :

Hello Beth, sounds like the guard does not know what is in bloom. He may not be a gardener. Beautiful flowers and lovely images. Glad you had a nice visit. Enjoy your day! Have a happy 4th of July!

We were also at Biltmore on April 22 of this year.and were disappointed we missed the tulips. The azaleas, however, were gorgeous. Thanks for the memories.

A fine post of these beautiful blossoms with one or two shots of other things. I especially liked the framed shot of the garden and house.

Hi Beth, Remember me? I haven't been blogging much lately---so am trying now to catch up a little... Love your Biltmore pictures--and recognize all of it... We were in Biltmore on June 23 (our anniversary)--but it was EXTREMELY hot that day there. We enjoyed going to Mt. Mitchell instead --where it was 63 degrees... Loved that!!!!! ha

Hugs,
Betsy

We both shared such a love for travel & photography. You will be missed. Rest In Peace, great "CameraGirl", RIP! ( : Where do we even start?, I continued to say to my hubby throughout our trip to Washington, Oregon, northern CA back in August 2015, that I wondered how I could take a picture of the whole tall tree? The trees in in the eastern US are huge, but the trees out west are gigantic, massive, huge!! There are .... THEY ARE! ...how do I even begin to show a picture of these awesome trees? I don't own a fancy camera just a normal point and shoot. How do I express to you the magnitude of how tall these massive trees are? they are huge!!! & will you
