2015 Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival - Future World

2015 marked the fourth year in a row that I've visited Epcot during its annual International Flower & Garden Festival. Much of the Festival remained the same as in previous years, with topiary and other floral displays decorating the park and Outdoor Kitchens bringing a taste of spring to the park.

This year, I've broken my photos up into two separate posts, so this one will feature photographs from Future World. I will include World Showcase photos in a separate post. I also detailed my food selections in yet another Flower & Garden post.


As you first enter Epcot through the main entrance, you as greeted by "Goofy About Spring", featuring Pluto, Goofy, and Daisy Duck.





The backside of "Goofy About Spring" features Chip and Dale, no doubt arousing the ire of Donald Duck as they scamper through his garden.










Walking past the immediate entrance area you will find "Spring is in the Air", a butterfly display directly behind Spaceship Earth (separate from the butterfly exhibit that I will show below).


Additional topiaries and flowers appear throughout Future World.
