Memphis, TN - The Memphis Botanic Garden (MBG) is pleased to announce the return of Spring Blooms at the Garden, a weekly event series featuring seasonal flowers at the Garden each Saturday from March 30 to April 27. Take in the tulips, awe at the azaleas, and wander through the wildflowers at this celebration of spring.

“The Garden is a great place to encounter nature as spring comes alive in the Mid-South. Just when you think it can't look any better something new blooms and adds even more to the season's beauty,” said Gina Harris, Director of Education & Events. “We invite you to enjoy the Garden week after week and immerse yourself in this sense-ational season that can’t be missed.”

Each Saturday different blooms are featured as they fill the Garden with pops of color, including spring ephemerals, tulips & hyacinths, Southern favorites, irises, and more. From 10 am-2 pm, visitors can enjoy a themed activity for the family, food trucks on-site for a picnic lunch, and more. Plus a signature cocktail and other spring spirits we’ll be available from our cash bar to enjoy as you stroll through the Garden.
