Located in Chester County, PA, about an hour outside of Philadelphia, Longwood Gardens boasts 11,000 varieties of plants spread out across more than 1,000 acres of gardens, meadows, woodlands and elaborate horticultural displays.

The institution was originally founded by Pierre du Pont in 1906 and has since become world renowned for its dedication to botany, design, education and art.

In the tranquil oasis of Longwood Gardens, visitors stroll along paths that wind through acres and acres of exquisitely maintained grounds.

A new vista presents itself at each turn: the Italian Water Garden, Flower Garden Walk and many others, including through Peirce’s Woods, a woodland oasis containing one of the nation’s first collection of trees — some of which are hundreds of years old.
