Columbus Blooms

03-21-2026 05-03-2026 DURING GENERAL ADMISSION & SPECIAL ENGAGEMENTS

A dazzling celebration of spring! More than 140,000 tulips, daffodils, and pansies throughout the gardens and container displays combine with stars of the botanical garden. Magnolias, lilacs, cherries, viburnum, and thousands of perennials bring an exciting burst of scents and colors after a long winter slumber.

Plants bloom throughout the season starting in March and continuing through the following months.

Stay tuned for a weekly update on spring blooms happening around the Conservatory!
