Daffodil Daydreams

Daffodils lead the floral parade each spring and at Filoli nearly a million bulbs burst into bloom. They are one of the easiest and hardiest of the garden flowers, giving you more with each year passing. From the smallest to the largest, whether planted in a formal flower bed, naturalized in a field or grown in a display pot, these flowering beauties signify the rebirth of the garden.

Filoli is an American Daffodil Society Display Garden and grows a wide variety of daffodil cultivars with the purpose of education visitors about these wonderful, easy to grow flowers and how they can be grown in almost any landscape.

Join us as we celebrate the spectacular flowering of Filoli’s Garden through two-days of informative talks, walks, demonstrations and hands-on activities. Admission to all activities is FREE for members or with paid admission to Filoli. Reservations are not necessary.
