It is tulip season! Today is Saturday 3 April, the day of our annual Spring Flower Festival. Once again the festival feel on the peak tulip blooming time; unfortunately today is very rainy. The festival went on anyway and many people are enjoying the flowers and festivities. The perennial plant sale continues Sunday beginning at noon.

But if you want to see the tulips come now. If the week before Mother's Day is cool they will still be beautiful. If the weather is hot the tulips will be on their way out for Mother's Day.
