Blooms at Queens Farm

NOTE:
We experienced unusually high temperatures in NYC on April 29th, peaking at 83ºF. The tulips in our Blooms field, in response, underwent extensive levels of petal curl, singe, and drop. As the field was winding down already, having bloomed earlier than scheduled following a mild winter, this unanticipated weather event unfortunately marks the conclusion of our Blooms program.

Any surviving tulips will be harvested and sold in our Farm Store.

Stay tuned for details on our bulb digout days, where guests will be invited to harvest bulbs for the home garden.

We encourage you to explore additional upcoming events and programs at Queens Farm this year.

Thank you!
