The Carlsbad Flower Fields Open March 1, 2012 in Carlsbad CA

 

The ever-popular, and beautiful Carlsbad Flower Fields will be opening for the spring blooming season this Thursday, March 1, 2012 in Carlsbad.

 

The Carlsbad Flower Fields

 

The Flower Fields, quite simply, are one of the most amazing arrays of flowery color on the hills overlooking the ocean just behind the Carlsbad Premium Outlet Mall on Paseo El Norte.

 

Acres of colorful ranunculas will amaze you, whether seen from a distance, a stroll along the perimeter, the outlook on Armada Drive to the east or on a tractor-drawn cart through the fields. What is more amazing, in some ways, is the transformation from a field of brown dirt just a few short months ago to a field of colorful flowers.

 

There are other flowers displays as well, and several fun events, including a Bluegrass Day on April 14 and a Mother’s Day Celebration on closing day, during the Flower Fields season, March 1 – May 13, 2012.

 

Tickets and season passes may be purchased on-line on the Flower Fields website.

Jeff, that is a gorgeous sight in the picture, and I bet it is far more amazing in person.  I would love to see that someday.

Hi Jeff, This is such a wondrous experience. The visual is like that experienced in Holland and I look forward to this every year. It used to be visible from the highway but barely today. I guess it is safer but I miss the regularity of seeing it.

Already? Heck it is snowing here right now, certainly aren't thinking spring flowers, but have my camera ready for them when they do finally arrive.

William - so true. I rememebr the tulip fields from Holland as well. Hope to get a chance to visit and take better photos.

Lynda - it is well worth the visit

Sharon - well the picture is better than nothing, but they are far more impressive when you are standing in front of them.

Lauren - you absolutely should. They are only around for a couple of months.

Todd - you can have it. Hope it ends soon.
