This week, delight in the story of Member Corrine C.:
Longwood Gardens was one of the first places I visited when I moved to Pennsylvania in 2017. I visited the gardens myself since my entire family was still back home in Hawaii. I had been missing them and trying to get used to being so far away from home. Walking around the gardens that day brought me a sense of peace and the comfort that I needed at the time. When I discovered the hibiscus and orchids, I knew this would not be my last visit to Longwood Gardens. The hibiscus represented home to me, and the orchids were my grandmother’s favorite flower. Two things I missed so much in one location! Needless to say, I bought my Membership that day and have been able to share the gardens with my family and friends when they come visit me in PA! Thank you to all the workers who spend so much time on the gardens to create such a magical place to visit each and every time.
