The Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park "is a 132 acre oasis of wetlands, woodlands, meadows and gardens designed by world-renowned landscape artists. Here you will find an internationally acclaimed permanent sculpture collection in a 35-acre sculpture park...."
The main building had just completed its chrysanthemum displays and was setting up Christmas trees representing about 30+ different countries - maybe more; I didn't count or ask. Once again we had just a stellar day for being outside. Here are photos of a number of sculptures in the park,

And then, into the indoor conservatory:
While I am certainly NOT a great gardener, I can sure appreciate the work of others. If you are in the area, don't miss this one!

Meijer Garden is beautifull, but I really love your pictures of the farms and the lakes. Seems like you both had a wonderful time. Glad your safe home. bye bye Caro
I bet that Garden takes on a whole new look in the snow. Incredible statuary. Thanks for sharing, friend. :)
