15th Annual Tulip Extravaganza

Eight to ten thousand tulips are about to burst into bloom in downtown Hendersonville according to master gardener, Scott Johnson. “The bulbs we planted in the fall should be in full bloom the second and third week of April,” said Johnson recently.

 

The “Tulip Extravaganza” is scheduled for April 1-30, which includes the week of Easter (April 5) and Passover(April 11) this year. Many of the shops will be holding their annual ‘spring cleaning’ sidewalk sale on April 10 & 11 during the height of the spring color. The downtown businesses hope that residents will bring their out-of-town guests for a week of shopping and dining. “Downtown Hendersonville is such a treasure to Western North Carolina. We anticipate as many visitors as tulips!” said Barbara Hughes, owner of Narnia Studios. Hughes also said the businesses will each have unique ways to welcome the crowds and spring. “Many businesses will have tulip-themed displays in their windows as well as offering their spring specials,” Hughes added.
