“Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful.” Norman Vincent Peale
While it is highly unlikely that snow will create a white Christmas for residents of lower Alabama, marvelous alternatives are available. The snowy white specimens of the camellia family located at Mobile Botanical Gardens and Bellingrath Gardens are joined by a plethora of festively colored camellia family members which provide a wintery afternoon of ethereal pleasure. Visit Mobile Botanical Gardens and Bellingrath websites to plan an escapade among the exotics.
