Biltmore Estate in North Carolina

With 255 rooms, the magnificent Bilmore Estate is often called an American Castle. It was constructed in the late 1800s.

Biltmore Estate - Was the architect French or inspired by that type of building design? That place is magnificent.

We sell a lot of the ‘Biltmore’ brand bulbs, shrubs, etc. at our garden center...they FLY off the shelves.

What a racket! But I guess they have to pay for upkeep somehow. The gardens are said to be spectacular; I’d like to visit there one day. :)
