Berkshire Botanical Garden’s Fitzpatrick Greenhouse becomes a harbinger of spring now through Sunday, March 29, when the public is invited to enjoy hundreds of flowering bulbs in an annual exhibition featuring New England springtime favorites and a collection of South African bulbs rarely seen in the northeast.
Visitors to the greenhouse will see an evolving collection of blooming plants including traditional New England favorites such as narcissus, tulips and grape hyacinths along with the Garden’s unique collection of South African bulbs. Grown by collectors for their remarkable late winter floral displays, these bulbs evolved in Fynbos, South Africa’s Cape floral kingdom, considered one of the richest areas in the world for plant biodiversity. Admission is free. The Bulb Show is open weekdays, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m.
