The Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens have been transformed in time for spring with its “The Birds and the B’s” display.

The installation, on display through May 17, takes guests into a “pastel wonderland, embodying transformation with stunning botanical masterpieces, wildlife-inspired elements and whimsical scenes that captivate the senses,” MGM Resorts International said in a news release.

The company said the display’s name is a “playful nod” to nature and pollination, while the “B’s” pay homage to the Bellagio’s iconic “B” that can be seen throughout the installation.

“The spring display was created to honor nature’s beauty and the sense of renewal that comes this time of year,” designer Ed Libby said in the release. “We invite guests to immerse themselves in a world where Bellagio’s signature glamour intertwines with the whimsy and romance of spring. From the charm of the birds and the bees to the glowing allure of a walk-through beehive, each element of the exhibit celebrates the enchanting transformation that makes this season so extraordinary.”

The display features an 18-foot-tall statue of Mother Earth, an 18-foot-tall walk-through beehive crafted from birch tree bark, Fabergé-style eggs, wisteria trees containing 35,000 purple wisteria flowers and 18,000 potted plants and flowers filling the 14,000-square-foot garden, according to MGM.

The display was assembled in six days, with 100 team members working 24 hours a day, MGM said.
