Missouri Botanical Garden: Plants in Bloom

The peak season of spring bloom has arrived and will continue for the next several weeks. Dogwoods, Redbuds and Flowering crabapples are in full bloom throughout the grounds.
The bulb borders are spectacular this week. Daffodils and tulips are in full bloom throughout the Garden.
Azaleas throughout the grounds are flowering, with displays becoming showier by the day. The entire azalea collection will be at peak bloom for Easter weekend and well beyond, weather permitting.
Kwanzan cherries (Prunus serrulata ‘Kwanzan’) are flowering in the Japanese Garden.
Wildflowers are blooming in the English Woodland Garden.
The rich fragrance of Spanish broom fills the Shoenberg Temperate. Brilliant magenta African daisies (Osteospermum hybrid ‘Wildside) cascade over the rocks along the stairs. Rich blue and white cineraria daisies (Pericallis hybrida ‘Jester Blue’) and the bright yellow spires of wild mullein from Crete (Verbascum arcturus) decorate the tiled Moorish Garden.
Enjoy the heady aroma of jasmine (Jasminum polyanthemum) in the Linnean House. Dainty fairy primroses (Primula malacoides ‘Prima series’) and cyclamen (Cyclamen persicum ‘Concerto Cordelia’) decorate the beds beneath the camellias.
