Spring Bulb Show and Opening Lecture at Smith College Smith College's annual bulb show, which will run daily from Saturday, March 6, through Sunday, March 21, in the Lyman Conservatory, College Lane, will feature two special events this year. A reception will follow the lecture in the Lyman Conservatory. McGourty, who has contributed articles to American Horticulturalist and Brooklyn Botanic Garden Handbooks, co-owns Hillside Gardens, a nursery in Norfolk, Conn., which specializes in uncommon perennials and perennial garden design. The bulb show features a spectacular array of forced bulbs which ordinarily bloom at different times throughout the spring. Visitors to the bulb show have the rare opportunity to see crocus, hyacinths, narcissi, irises, lilies, tulips and other bulbs bloom simultaneously and to catch an early glimpse of spring.
All events are open to the public at no charge and are wheelchair accessible.
During the show, parking will be available on College Lane. Page maintained by the Office of College Relations.
