Objective(s):
This behind-the-scene tour is not an ordinary one.

Experience and explore interiorscaping inside out at one of the most luxurious resorts in the U.S. Walk through Bellagio’s world famous conservatory, a 14,000-square-foot floral playground into a showcase of the distinctive sights and seasonal colors.  Under a hundred feet dome of lush tropical forest, hundreds of orchids, thousands of bromeliads and gargantuan palm trees will welcome you at the Mirage Atrium. Wynn’s ornate atrium is adorned with immaculate floral sculpture and trees. Wynn and Encore hotels boasts its abundance use of plants: 12,000 pots of floral and 5,500 fresh stems in the public spaces, covering six to eight miles in the process. Additionally, Wynn’s 24 florists work in a 5,000-square-foot room below the main casino floor, cleaning and cutting the fresh flowers, including 350 Phalaenopsis orchids from Asia.

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to get a peek at these major hotels’ operation and their use of plants and flowers.
