RonnieAdventure #0639 - Bellagio Conservatory Fall 2024 Arrangement, Las Vegas, Nevada

The Conservatory at Bellagio describes their Fall 2024 Arrangement "The Garden of Time" as follows:

"Wander through the enchanted forest where time stands still and encounter a symphony of autumnal splendor. Amidst 'The Garden of Time,' stand petrified wooden statues of woodland creatures captured in an eternal pause. These timeless creatures, poised beside a gently rippling pond, invite you to immerse yourself in their silent narratives, conjuring whispered tales from forests' long past. The forest floor is a vibrant tapestry of life, with the Blue Tango Bromeliad's striking azure hues contrasting beautifully against the rich palette of Coleus foliate and the shimmering textures of Heuchera. Experience the floral brilliance and spectral pumpkins where time seems to hold its breath, allowing you to revel in the timeless enchantment that is at The Conservatory. "

Visitors entering The Conservatory from the east side pass under an 18-foot-tall archway arbor on a turquoise stone pathway that leads into a "world of natural beauty and wonder."
