Autumn Harvest Display: Take a Look Before the Other Holidays Take Over

The Bellagio Conservatory at Las Vegas' Bellagio Hotel and Casino employs more than 140 horticulturists and designers to work seasonally themed magic on its spectacular show-stopping displays. While recreating the display is most likely out of the question, it's still a great place to get ideas to try out for your own outdoor decorating. I had the opportunity to visit the show-stopping display of plants, trees and characters -- both real and fantasy -- at the Bellagio's "Autumn Harvest" exhibit at the Conservatory, which continues through November 29. If you won't be doing the turkey-thing in Las Vegas this week, take this photo tour and get some last-minute decorating ideas, or a jump on next fall's outdoor display.
