SPRINGTIME
IN VIRGINIA

In early March, spring creeps in. Fruit trees and witch hazels bloom on bare limbs and early bulbs emerge among the leaves. By April, daffodils, tulips and bluebells color the ground while viburnum and redbuds paint the canopy above. The blazing colors of rhododendrons and azaleas fill the space between. With warming weather, peonies, iris and roses emerge. Learn what makes “A Million Blooms” possible and how the Garden changes, including the brief appearance of ephemerals.
