The gardens are starting to wake up! In coastal California, it’s more of a winter nap than a long sleep. The white tulip magnolia tree is in bloom. Also the camellias and the tiny little daffodils. The fruit trees and the dogwood won’t be far behind. View more photos…
In California, Arbor Day is celebrated on March 7th, in honor of Luther Burbank’s birthday. (In many other parts of the country it’s celebrated late in April, as being a more appropriate time, weatherwise, for planting trees.)
In fact, California celebrates Arbor Week, March 7-14. You can find more information about local activities at Arbor Week.
