Piling on everyone else but it has to be Phipps, bar none. Absolute greatest display you'll see. Here's a tip, book a late ticket time for Friday or Saturday night - like 8:30 / 9:00 for time. It's less crowded then. But definitely go at night bc the outdoor light garden is spectacular at night. Depending on crowd size and how quick (or slow) you move through Phipps, I'd budget 2 hours to be safe. Can def be done in an hour and a half (and probably an hour if you don't stop at all), but budgeting 2 hours or slightly under gives you time to take your time.

My tip would be to buy tickets for like 4pm on a weekday. By the time you get through the rest of the conservatory, you'll hit the outdoor garden around 5pm and it'll be dark plus you don't have to deal with insane crowds.

That too! I guess I figured (or wrongly assumed) visitors would be here over a weekend. But yes, this too!
