Spring Has Arrived at Callaway Gardens....and Peak Azalea Season, Too!

PINE MOUNTAIN (03/21/2019) – The first full day of Spring in 2019 also magically marks the start of the highly-anticipated peak blooming season of Callaway Gardens’ world-famous azaleas!  

Don't miss this amazing display of color that happens only a brief time each year.  The Overlook Azalea Garden is entering peak bloom!  Upon visiting, Members and guests will also be thrilled to see the beginning of this historic gardens’ restoration project with manicured trails, enhanced water features and a variety of new plantings underway.

The 40-acre Callaway Brothers Azalea Bowl is coming into peak but a few days behind the more mature Overlook Azalea Garden & Trails.  In addition, beloved Spring bloomers such as tulips, dogwoods, redbuds, red buckeye, native azaleas, spring wildflowers along the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Trail and more are blooming, too, for those perfect social media photo opportunities.   

For a glance at what the blooms look like, visit the annual Azalea Watch section of www.callawaygardens.com or visit the Callaway Gardens Facebook Page for regular updates.  New for 2019 is a live webcam so guests may visit virtually before planning a trip to Pine Mountain!   

To make it a getaway, a variety of Spring overnight packages are available at the Resort and as always, the Callaway Team has planned many special events and activities as part of the annual Celebrate Spring! season, now through the end of April.
