Our good neighbors and friends at
Garvan Gardens will have a Tulip Extravaganza April 1-30 with a show of 135,000
beautiful tulips in the Gardens. As we speak, the first tulips are popping up
and before we know it (and, hopefully no more really cold days) the dramatic
floral display, which is always breathtaking, will be alive with color across
acres of the Gardens. This is a spectacle not to be missed.
There are so many wonderful flowers
in Spring but the Tulip Extravaganza is extraordinary. When the warm weather
stays around for awhile the profusion of tulips will peak from the ground
quickly. The Gardens say it is the biggest display of spring color between
Dallas and Memphis. Doesn’t that just make you want to plan a weekend retreat
just to see the tulips?
Strolling the beautiful Gardens any
time of year is certainly a treat, but the tulips are always a favorite.
Hyacinths, daffodils, new foliage on the Japanese Maples, spring wildflowers
and perennials are in bloom now. Later in April, hundreds of red, pink, violet
and white azaleas, and thousands of dogwood blossoms will be the area of
attraction.
An event from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. March
22 at the Gardens, in addition to the Extravaganza, includes “Tulip Time,” a
drop-in family program to learn about the gorgeous flowers and make a handmade
craft to take home. For more information, call 501.262.9300.
At Diamondhead we love to stroll Garvan
Gardens to enjoy the beauty of the area and for exercise, and the tulips are
truly a sight to behold. We also love that the Gardens are our close neighbor
and a great place not only to visit but also to volunteer. The flowers are
beginning to bloom at Diamondhead also and the spring activities are starting
to kick-in. Golfers are hitting the course during the warm days. Lake Catherine
is now filled and ready for spring fishing and summer boating. We have a great
place to live and call home. We’d love to have you check us out. Give us a call
@ 501.520.9201 or 501. 262.9310 to set up a tour.
