Flowering Schedule

The flowering schedule is based on a select number of trees and shrubs at The Dawes Arboretum. It reflects the notes and photographs that Mike Ecker, Director of Horticulture, has taken for over 20 years. Bloom times are variable, depending on weather. This chart below (in .pdf format) interprets a "normal" year, and shows when you would most likely see the listed plants in bloom at The Dawes Arboretum.
