ACT IV.

New actors and actresses add their beauty to the cast as summer drifts by. The Crepe Myrtle, the Oleander, the Magnolia, the Hibiscus, the Allamanda and numerous other colorful flowers help make the Bellingrath Gardens Show the wonderful pageant that it is. Summer fades into fall, and as the final curtain is lowered the audience reluctantly leaves with happy smiles and fond memories of the “Charm Spot of the Deep South”: of dexterous landscaping: of gray Spanish moss draping branches of noble oaks and cypresses and forming backdrop curtains for the thrilling drama continuously being produced way down South in Bellingrath Gardens.
