Florida Botanical Gardens Holiday Light Display in Largo Florida

Published on 12/14/22: Cheers to Florida Botanical Gardens in Largo for this incredible light display! Anyone familiar? How about their huge Singing Tree?! Ha. I’ll discuss that one in my upcoming video post.

Before I review our visit to Florida Botanical Garden’s Light Display…. If you want one of the Christmas Story “Leg Lamp” 20 inch replicas, make sure you subscribe to the new LovingStPete YouTube channel! (FREE of course) The drawing is this Friday evening. One video already has 5K views in < 4 days, yowzers. However, from a giveaway perspective, only 30 people have entered, great odds on this one! You simply need a Google or Gmail account to subscribe. Takes 20 seconds.😊 I appreciate the support, as do the small businesses who you know I’ll post about in time! You know you want a glowing leg lamp in your window! #JustDoIt
