$5 Admission to the Dallas Arboretum thru February 24
To kick off the new year and encourage people to enjoy the gardens and be outdoors, the Dallas Arboretum is offering $5 general admission beginning January 2 through February 24 for non-members. This offer is only available when purchased at the gate.
The Rory Meyers Children’s Adventure Garden will be closed for preventative maintenance January 1 – February 24.
Dave Forehand, Dallas Arboretum’s vice president of gardens, said, “After the holidays, we all need some motivation to get moving, and there is not a more beautiful place to walk than along the one-mile fitness trail at the Dallas Arboretum. This discount will also encourage more people to see the winter plantings and get a sneak peek of bulbs as we plant and prepare for our acclaimed Dallas Blooms festival.”
Dallas Blooms
Dallas Blooms, the Southwest’s largest spring floral festival, returns with the theme “Flower Power”, beginning February 25 through April 9, 2017. Get your groove on in the garden with Peace, Love, and Blooms, featuring more than 500,000 spring blooming bulbs, florally decorated topiary VW bugs, thousands of azaleas, and hundreds of cherry blossom trees.
