The Appearance of S’hrooms 

“I have a fear of 

things growing on things. 

I don’t know where it came from. 

But I go hiking a lot, 

and sometimes I can’t handle 

moss growing on trees or 

tumors on trees or 

mushrooms.” 

~ Lara Jean Chorostecki 

Perfectly Exquisite 

“It was in the 1920s, 

when nobody had time to reflect, 

that I saw a still-life painting 

with a flower 

that was perfectly exquisite, 

but so small you really 

could not appreciate it.”

~ Georgia O’Keeffe

Bellagio Conservatory is Transformed into Japanese Tea Garden in Las Vegas, Nevada 

Fragrant cherry blossoms, graceful pebble fountains, delicate origami cranes, and exotic koi fish in a tranquil pond are a few of the eye-popping elements in this vibrant display. At every turn, thousands of fresh tulips, daffodils, snapdragons, and spring flowers blanket the ground among botanical animals enormous in size. Overhead ethereal hand-painted parasols appear floating in air. Linger among the bonsai trees, note the abstract stone art of Mount Fuji, and be inspired by the karma of the Far East recreated in the Bellagio Conservatory at Las Vegas.
