Thank you for joining us on the magnolia tour. The magnolia bloom was at peak when we filmed and it really was a delight to share it with others.

Fantastic video !!! Have always wanted to visit Scott Arboretum and this video definitely made my decision for me to visit this beautiful arboretum ! I love Magnolias and adore Cherry trees even more ,so I have to decide on which time to visit since I live three hours away. Thanks so much for a very informative and beautiful video !!!

Thank you very much for that info ! I’ll definitely plan my visit for that time and around that event ! Is there any handicapped parking on campus ? I’m able to walk but have some mobility issues so the closer I can park,the better !

spectacular walk of mags!!! may I ask when was this recorded? Will I be able to see them still in bloom this weekend? I know many early mags were subject to frost last week or so, but I still have some hope...

[@sharonharris8152]

I was wondering the same thing - if I visit within the next week will I still be able to see the Magnolias looking as beautiful ,or near beautiful,as they do in the video ,or should I wait until the Cherry trees are in bloom ?

Thank you for tuning in Jerri. The video was recorded the week before it premiered. It takes a week edit and review nomenclature. The magnolias and cherries are both in bloom right now. Our Flowering Cherry Border will be full bloom the weekend of April 5, 6, and 7 during our Ohara School of Ikebana Exhibition. www.scottarboretum.org/calendar/ohara-school-of-ikebana-exhibition-2/2024-04-06/
