Pink & White Poinsettias

By Pattyhankins @PattyHankins

I’ve made my first two visits to Longwood Gardens for their Christmas display (I have one more trip planned for between Christmas and New Years). As usual – Christmas at Longwood Gardens is amazing!

I’ll be posting lots of photos over the next few weeks. I thought I’d start with some of the beautiful pink and white poinsettias I photographed this year.

Christmas Beauty Pink is a wonderful poinsettia – the petals are a variety of shades of pink.  Christmas Beauty Pink is my favorite pink poinsettia that I photographed this year.

As beautiful as the individual Santa Claus Pink Poinsettia’s are – they are even more impressive in mass groupings.

Sparkling Punch is a pink and white poinsettia that reminds me of the Ice Punch Poinsettia. I’m hoping to get some better photos of Sparkling Punch on my next visit to Longwood.

And finally, Angelika White Poinsettia – a poinsettia with classic cream colored petals.
