Description

Named by Southern Living as one of the "Best Places to See Stunning Spring Blooms Across the South," the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden proudly presents the 40th annual Dallas Blooms 2025: Outside the Ordinary, the largest annual floral festival in the Southwest, presented by Amegy Bank.

Running from Feb. 22 to April 13, 2025, Dallas Blooms will showcase more than 500,000 spring-blooming bulbs in a spectacular display that includes 350,000 tulips, along with vibrant daffodils, hyacinths and cherry blossoms. As the festival unfolds, the gardens evolve with the colors of vivid azaleas and cherry trees, offering visitors a fresh visual experience each week.

Festival highlights for 2025:

Seward Johnson’s life-sized sculptures: The late, American artist was renowned for his life-size, hyper-realistic bronze figures that capture everyday people in familiar moments. These human-like bronze figures will be positioned throughout the garden for interactive photo opportunities.
Among the featured works is Crossing Paths, the monumental metal sculpture leaving its home in New Jersey for the first time. Standing 20 feet tall, Crossing Paths is the largest metal sculpture ever hosted by the garden.
