Celebrate daffodils and other cheery spring flowers as you visit the Chicago Botanic Garden.

Our plant collections are budding and blooming and transforming the Garden into a colorful horticultural oasis. Snowy white magnolias, cheery yellow forsythias and the cascading chartreuse branches of willows, reflected in the water, provide the backdrop for a million flowering bulbs.

The patches of electric blue seen in many gardens now is Siberian squill. Evening Island and the Lakeside Gardens are covered with yellow and white narcissus. The island west of the parking lots is covered with Carlton and Ice Follies daffodils. Along the Edens, you can see Dutch Master, Marieke and Spellbinder daffodils. Spring annuals including pansies, pot marigolds and Morocco toadflax, have been planted in beds and containers.
