“Majesty: The Grandeur of Nature” Showcases Bellagio’s Conservatory & Botanical Gardens’ Celebration of Summer’s Beauty
LAS VEGAS (May 31, 2023) – Bellagio’s Conservatory & Botanical Gardens has recently unveiled its stunning summer display, titled “Majesty: The Grandeur of Nature,” which will be open to the public until September 9. This immersive experience, created by designer Ed Libby and the Bellagio Horticulture team, beautifully captures the essence of summer and its transformative energy. Visitors are transported from the ordinary into a magical realm of breathtaking beauty and wonder, envisioned as a gift from Mother Nature to the world.
“‘Majesty: The Grandeur of Nature’ is rooted in the concept of greatness, symbolizing the beauty of Mother Nature and the rejuvenating energy that emerges during the summer season,” said Libby. “Every element of this display carries a significant message, representing the revitalizing breath of life that summer brings and the growth that flourishes during this time.”
As guests explore the exhibit, the air is filled with the sweet scent of summer, featuring a custom fragrance infused with honeysuckle nectar, fresh lemon, citrusy petitgrain, crushed greens, orange blossom, muguet hyacinth, and white musk. For the first time, visitors can take this delightful scent home with them by purchasing the scented candle, “Majesty,” available at The Giardini Garden Store located near the Conservatory or online at bellagioathome.com.
In the West Bed, the loving hands of Mother Nature emerge from the center, presenting a dazzling bouquet of flowers, while water cascades gently into a serene lagoon below. Inspired by Italian artistry, the 28-foot-tall hands embody themes of environmental stewardship, partnership, and renewal. Towering willow trees sway above The Garden Table, nestled in a lush green sanctuary.
At the heart of the North Bed, a mythical figure perches on a large rock, representing the masculine side of nature. Two hummingbirds, adorned with iridescent purple hues, hover over the hidden paradise as the gentle giant pours water into a misty river. A magnificent crown of purple and white wisteria hangs above a grotto, while vibrant media screens in the background depict scenes of water and picturesque moments, creating a sense of an endless natural world.
Upon entering the East Bed, visitors follow a stone pathway to discover a mossy secret garden. Magical woodland creatures come to life amidst a summer floral scene, symbolizing the harmonious union of nature and humanity. Butterflies flutter softly through the air above a fountain, representing transformation, hope, and strength. Bright red and pink roses accentuate the lush green garden adorned with various types of moss and lichen, creating a landscape that reflects the awakening of summer and the grandeur of the season.
The South Bed features an ethereal 18-foot-tall goddess as its centerpiece, delicately cradling a yellow butterfly, while water gracefully falls from her hands, personifying Mother Nature’s nurturing and feminine qualities. Adorned with radiant yellow roses, coleus, and succulents, her flowing hair blends seamlessly with the surrounding florals. As fog rolls across the pond’s surface, a playful goldfinch explores the floral nirvana, infusing the space with a sense of joyous energy and a delightful reminder of life’s simple pleasures.
Nestled within a lush and enchanted hideaway, The Garden Table offers a truly immersive and exclusive dining experience at the Bellagio Conservatory. Guests can savor a serene and private meal while overlooking the breathtaking scenery and vibrant floral displays.
