Bok Tower Gardens is a contemplative garden and bird sanctuary located north of Lake Wales, Florida, that features the 205-foot-tall Singing Tower with its carillon bells. The garden is a National Historic Landmark that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, significant for its association with Edward W. Bok and its designers.

We visited the “Season’s Greenings: America’s Gardens!” exhibit at the United States Botanic Garden, featuring plant-based recreations of conservatories, fountains and sculptures from around the country, with model trains running around and above the displays. It's become an annual event for us, and we always enjoy the holiday creations as well as the traditional DC landmarks display (most of which I didn't photograph again this year) as well as the 3,000-plus varieties of pointsettias gracing the various halls.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.
