It’s starting to warm up at the Garden and little signs of spring are beginning to appear thanks to the warm temps we have enjoyed the past week. While we have a way to go for these adorable muscari flowers to bloom, we are hopeful that our resident wildlife (that’s you 🐇 , 🐿️ and 🐀 ) let them be so we can enjoy their colorful periwinkle blooms this April. Special thanks to SFBG Horticulture Director Linda Churchill and our diligent Garden volunteers for planting more spring bulb flowers last fall. Spring is right around the corner so be sure to stop by soon and see what’s starting to sprout! 🌱
