It’s been a whirlwind of cherry blossoms at the Garden this week, with our Japanese cherries, plums, and apricots going from the quiet of winter to the full bloom of spring in just a handful of days. They’re currently at 90% of the way to peak bloom, which means this weekend is likely your last chance to see them in all their seasonal splendor.

The daffodils are waking! And with the first bloom of our massive expansion of the historic Narcissus collection on Daffodil Hill just beginning, it’s likely to be a huge year for these sunny flowers. Stay tuned.
