The North Carolina Arboretum is heralding spring’s arrival with the return of “Bloom with a View,” May 4-19.
This intricately designed floral installation provides guests with an immersive and unique experience that places them among tens of thousands of flowers. For two weeks, the Arboretum’s gardens, walkways and promenade will be festooned with displays of hydrangeas, lilies, calla lilies and much more. Throughout the campus, colorful and festive planters will elevate bursts of blooms to eye-level and guests are invited to wander, explore or even take a serene moment among the flowers.
During its inaugural year in 2023, attendance exceeded expectations as thousands came out to enjoy the spectacle. This year, guests will be invited to join in a long and storied history of the “flower selfie,” with large displays highlighting the artistic legacy of self-portraits in gardens.
“Bloom with a View” utilizes the help and expert craftsmanship of Arboretum staff, local printers, plant producers, and woodshops to create a truly inspiring and elevating floral experience.
“Bloom with a View” takes place May 4-19 at The North Carolina Arboretum. While the exhibit is on display, parking for the Arboretum will be $30 per personal vehicle, purchased at the gate, and provides access to all gardens, trails and indoor exhibits.
