Lately, I've developed a love-hate relationship with cherry blossom season. I love the canopy of delicate pink blooms at cherry blossom-viewing spots around the globe. But the hordes of fellow flower lovers jostling to get the perfect picnic spot or selfie? Not so much.
So this year, I started searching for other spring flower moments that deliver the same sense of magic, minus the shoulder-to-shoulder flora fans and sold-out hotels. As it turns out, the world is full of delightful destinations for bloom-viewing. Think: an entire city turning lavender during jacaranda season, hillsides glowing with roses and fields filled with dazzling wildflowers.
Newport Daffodil Days is featured in this article. Gardiner House, Flora, and Coastal Queen Cruises were also mentioned.
