Festival of Blossoms: What's Blooming When
From early spring to late fall, the enchanting Door County peninsula comes alive with a wide variety of beautiful blossoms. This chart highlights the blooming seasons of our most popular species. Because blooms are weather dependent, the dates given here are only approximate.
Door County’s natural environment is both beautiful and fragile. Some of the same geographic and geologic attributes that give the county its beauty are also responsible for its thin soils.
In order to protect our delicate plant and animal life for the enjoyment of future generations, please do not pick the blossoms.
