Few people realize that over in the PeeDee region of the Palmetto State there’s a hidden garden that’s only open to the public on rare occasions. Bulbapalooza is one of those incredible rare occasions and takes place for a mere two days at Moore Farms Botanical Garden – a private, not-for-profit, 65-acre garden in Lake City.

As mentioned, most have never even heard of Moore Farms Botanical Garden in Lake City. However, after a visit during the peak of bulb blooming season, you won't soon forget this enchanted oasis.

More than 40,000 bulbs are planted early in the season and by the time Bulbapalooza arrives on March 15-16, 2019, they will be lighting up the landscape with color! (The event continues the following weekend, March 22-23, 2019.)
