Festival of Blossom at Greenway
Celebrate the arrival of blossom at Greenway between 20 March - 30 April.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
From magnolias blooming overhead to an abundance of fruit trees and wild hedgerow flowers, the arrival of spring blossom is one of Greenway garden's highlights.
Between 20 March and 30 April, see how many types of blossom bloom at Greenway. There's a blossom trail to follow, snap a seasonal selfie under the blossom archway or try your hand at blossom origami in the house kitchen.
We highly encourage visitors to switch off and take a moment to slow down and enjoy the signs of new life. Connecting with nature, even for a few minutes, can give us an escape from the stresses of daily life and give us the space to gather our thoughts.
You could take photos of new blooms, have a picnic under the blossom, practise mindfulness or forest bathing. Join in and share your photos on social media using #BlossomWatch.
