3/5 Pixar Topiary Preview – Epcot Flower and Garden Festival: Lightning McQueen, Lotso, Mater, TS3

Hi everyone!

It's two days away until the opening of the Epcot Flower and Garden Festival! This is the 6th year that Mousesteps has covered it. So much is already up and we've shared photos and video – but new to us today (among other things) was the Pixar topiaries in the Japan and America pavilions!

The flower quilt on the way to World Showcase is so vibrant!

This Cars Topiary display features Lightning McQueen and Mater in Japan, with World Showcase in the background:

And at the America pavilion, Woody and Buzz Lightyear are in one location (surrounded by blocks), while Lotso Huggin' Bear from Toy Story 3 is in the back. The blocks feature a variety of Toy Story characters! Lotso does smell like strawberries – actually, you can see the sprayer where the strawberry scent comes out from below.

Epcot never looks more beautiful than it does for the Flower and Garden Festival! Here are a couple of more photos I took before leaving, including at the Universe of Energy.
