Crabapples in Bloom

Crabapples in Bloom in SpringCrabapples in Bloom in Spring The Crabapples along the Lakeside Garden path and circling the Great Basin are in full bloom now. Begin by entering the Lakeside Garden path near the English Walled Garden. The canopy of blooms reminds me of a fairyland and I often imagine how my 5-year-old self would have felt entering this magical path. Continue around the Great Basin over the Arch Bridge towards Evening Island, viewing the trees from many different viewpoints. Crabapples in shades of white, pink and red are along the paths. I love circling all around the lake, crossing over the Serpentine Bridge to look back and view the crabapple displays on Evening Island with the carillon bell tower. Yesterday the air was filled with the sounds of chirping birds and singing frogs in the lake. It's a magical time that I look forward to each spring but it doesn't last long. A big storm or heavy winds can send those blossoms dancing to the ground like snow, so go now to see this wonderful display.
