Visit To Gibbs Gardens Wednesday, March 18th
Daffodils, Cherry Blossoms and Tulips are in season. There are more than 20 million daffodil flowers, over 100 varieties covering over 50 acres of hillsides and valley.
There are hundreds of Yoshino cherries in the gardens, the same ornamental cherry trees that bloom at the Tidal Basin in Washington, D.C. Every December, they plant over 40,000 tulip bulbs. In the spring, serpentine beds throughout the Gardens come alive with the striking colors of 40 different types of early, mid and late blooming tulips.
Jim Gibbs traveled for 15 years covering the nation and the world viewing gardens of every style and decided that he wanted to design and build a world-class garden. He spent six years looking for a suitable site with a strong source of water and beautiful mature trees covering a rolling topography. It was truly “a dream come true” when he found the most beautiful site in the nation to construct the Gardens. The property is 376 acres and the house and gardens include 300+ acres, making it one of the nation’s largest residential estate gardens.
We will meet up at the main entrance at 11:00 am on Wednesday, March 18, We can then take a stroll through some of the displays then have lunch around noon. After lunch we can then explore the remaining gardens.
