About this festival
A spectacular array of crocuses, hyacinths, narcissi, irises, lilies and tulips provide an early glimpse of spring in the Lyman Conservatory. The annual Spring Bulb Show is a long-standing Smith College tradition, dating back over 100 years. Ordinarily blooming at different times, some 5,000 bulbs are coaxed into blooming simultaneously. In recent years new additions of bulbs from South Africa have added to the exotic flavor of the Show. More info: http://www.smith.edu/gardens/Home/events.html
