On the last day of vacation:

We stopped at Longwood Gardens  and walked all over the place , finding spots we had never gone to before. They have a wildflower meadow! It is huge! They planted the edge of the meadow with small trees and shrubs to create a more natural progression from the forest walk ( amazing spot , didn't get into that very far) . They planted 15,000 native grasses and wildflowers. There are blue bird boxes , some inhabited by wrens ,but not all. There is a pond or two.
We also stopped in the conservatory ( one of the extras) and the waterlily garden , which is my favorite spot in the entire gardens, hence it is not only the main photo but also an extra. 
The extras also include a shot of the first room in the conservatory (first time I was there it was all orchids) , and a skipper on a marigold in the flower gardens.
