…Well I really should explain this a little further… Normally when someone asks me “What are you going to tell us about?” the answer is relatively obvious (like for a conference on journalism you would talk about….journalism wouldn’t you!!) well today I’m going to tell you all about Plant Décor….Of course!

Sometimes of course, a subject can appear quite banal but if you take a closer look it becomes really interesting and exciting. Plant Décor is one of those subjects. It’s a living art that needs lots of care and attention throughout the year and according to the seasons.

Imagine… Imagine that you are next to Space Mountain: Mission 2 near the FastPass. Imagine the time spent by the landscape gardeners and horticulturalists using their tried and tested expertise to train the plane trees onto the trellises! (remember I interviewed Rémi, a gardener at the resort a few months back…). They create these futuristic decors and immerse us in Discoveryland to our roots and back!

In Fantasyland, the boxwood hedges and decorative pastel flowers recreate the royal gardens and coats of arms of yesteryear!
Isn’t that amazing!
So, the saying of the day is:
“At Disneyland when autumn falls
Many flowers your very eyes enthral!
And when winter breathes its chilly breath
Disney reveals its planted depth…”
