Seattle (more specifically, you, a Seattleite) made it through another pandemic winter, and there’s no better way to celebrate than by filling your life with the ephemeral blooms that return this time of year. Whether you’re in the market for some new plant babies (like at Tilth’s Edible Plant Sale in May), you’re in the mood for a flower-filled road trip (like the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival 2022), or you want to stroll through some pretty trees closer to home (like the UW Cherry Blossoms or the always-popular Washington Park Arboretum), we’ve rounded up all the best ways to celebrate the natural bounty of the season. Plus, check out our spring calendar for other seasonal events.
