All Creatures Great and Small

State Floor Decorations

One of the finest pieces of art in the White House, the portrait of Benjamin Franklin by David Martin, is the centerpiece of the Green Room. Topiaries of gold and green fruit stand on either side of the sofa and brilliant red poinsettias and fresh green pears. The Blue Room has long been the location of the official White House Christmas Tree. Ed and Cindy Hedlund and their son Thomas, of Hedlund Christmas Farm in Elma, Washington, presented this year's 18-foot noble fir to President George W. Bush and wife Laura Bush.
The Red Room is decorated with garlands and topiaries made of pomegranates, pears and magnolia leaves. A small cranberry tree surrounded by holly sits on an antique marble-top table. Cheerful garlands and bright sprays of greenery decorate the mantel and cascade from wall sconces in the State Dining Room. Ed and Cindy Hedlund and their son Thomas, of Hedlund Christmas Farm in Elma, Washington presented this year's 18-foot noble fir to President George W. Bush and wife Laura Bush.
