Spring is in the air and cities around the United States often celebrate with some sort of flower festival. Here in Dallas, the Arboretum puts on what has come to be called “Dallas Blooms”, which basically kicks off the season, and indeed the rest of the year.
Botanic gardens and arboretums are wonderful destinations to shake those winter blah’s, offering everything from seasonal outdoor festivals and art shows to concerts, dining and more. And the wonderful thing is, every time you come back, there is something else to see! Bring your cameras and binoculars, or just come and enjoy the spectacle.
This year (as with most) I helped the Dallas Bonsai Society put on their Spring Show, so I was there for the opening weekend of “Blooms”. The flowers on the grounds are bursting with color. Our trees looked in good form this year. Next door the Daffodil Society displayed their beautiful flowers. It was a great weekend. I can't wait to get back and spend more time checking out all the new things the arboretum has to offer!
