Bellagio’s Conservatory & Botanical Gardens Holiday Display
Posted on 11 December 2009
Bellagio’s Conservatory & Botanical Gardens welcomes winter with a spectacular holiday display rich in nostalgia and filled with picture-perfect botanical creations. Visitors discover flying reindeer made of pecans and a living holiday card bestowing season’s tidings. In the center of it all, a spectacular holiday tree sends gazes soaring while musical sounds of the season will evoke fond memories of home.
A polar bear family, adorned with coats of white carnations, tug on the heartstrings of visitors young and old. The delightful trio, set in a wintry clearing, are seen enjoying a moment of family togetherness. The baby bear frolics playfully on his back while mama and papa bear watch with affection.
Just steps away, eight reindeer are captured in mid-flight as they guide a present-filled, red-lacquer sleigh into a snowy sky. The reindeer appear to soar over a giant, living holiday card comprised of thousands of blooming florals.
The inspiring centerpiece of this beautiful exhibit is a stately 42-foot Shasta Fir ablaze in thousands of twinkling lights and encircled by over-sized holiday ornaments that appear to float in mid-air. Standing at attention around the majestic holiday tree’s base are four grand toy soldiers, each a commanding 15 feet tall.
Nearby, a 7-foot-tall, custom-sculpted rocking horse stands in the midst of a whimsical rail display featuring a working Bellagio-emblazoned train, all calling to mind gifts of yesteryear. In another corner of this elaborate wintry display, visitors discover a flower-clad snowman surrounded by giant 13-foot-tall peppermint sticks.
Just around the corner at Jean Philippe Pâtisserie, a chocolate Santa dressed in a suit of sugar icing sends spirits soaring with the help of a chocolate airplane.
Guests are invited to enjoy the delights of this winter wonderland 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, through January 2, 2010. Best of all, it’s free!
