Spring has sprung! Rhododendron season is in full effect. The grounds are quickly becoming awash in beautiful shades of pink, purple, white and greens of every shade. If you’ve never been to Bloedel Reserve, now is the time to visit.

Book Signing & Presentation by David Cobb: Friday, June 21

Enjoy a virtual tour of Japanese Gardens of North America with photos from the book. Cobb will discuss the finer points of photographing Japanese gardens and impart what he has learned about capturing the broad perspectives, the smallest details, their commonalities, differences, and unique beauty through the seasons.

The Bloedel Reserve in Bainbridge Island, Washington is an internationally renowned public garden and forest preserve. The founder’s vision was “to provide refreshment and tranquility in the presence of natural beauty,” and the Reserve’s mission is to “enrich people’s lives through a premier public garden of natural and designed Pacific Northwest landscapes.”

The Reserve’s 150 acres are a unique blend of natural woodlands and beautifully landscaped gardens, including a Japanese Garden, a Moss Garden, a Reflection Pool and the Bloedels’ former estate home.  We invite you to visit this Northwest treasure.
