At the beginning of World Showcase is Sorcerer Mickey and other “Fantasia” characters.
The dancing ostriches are lined up on one side.
Giant flowers are behind the characters.
The hippo and alligator are dancing on the other side of Mickey.
Mickey is surrounded by figures of the broomsticks, all collecting plants in their water buckets.
There are also giant flowers on either side of the World Showcase promenade.
“Frozen” sisters Anna and Elsa welcome guests to the Norway Pavilion.
Lots of flowers surround the Anna and Elsa topiaries.
Elsa’s white-blonde hair and blue eyes shine through in this topiary.
Fun-loving Anna has her cute, reddish-blonde braids.
In the Germany Pavilion, we found Miss Piggy and Kermit.

Kermit is riding his bicycle.
Lady and the Tramp are front and center in the Italy Pavilion.
They sit on the courtyard stage, with several pots and planters of red and pink flowers in front of them.
More flowers are behind them.
The American Adventure Pavilion has a Pluto topiary along with topiary Chip & topiary Dale.
Lots of flowers surround the three characters.
Pluto even dons a floral collar for the occasion.
Pluto is now surrounded by various terracotta planters.
Over in the United Kingdom Pavilion, Pooh and friends have arrived.
A confident-looking Tigger stands next to Eeyore with Piglet on the donkey’s back.
Eeyore seems unsure about the festival.
However, Tigger is photo-ready!
Rabbit carries carrots from his beloved garden.
Along the Imagination walkway, you’ll find a topiary scene from “The Lion King.”
In this iconic opening scene, Rafiki holds baby Simba up for all to see while Mufasa and Sarabi look out at their kingdom.
Mufasa looks particularly regal.
Baby Simba looks cautious and unsure.

His wings appear to be wooden.
