Spring in the Blue Mountains
All over the Mountains, creative gardeners have made the most of the temperate conditions to plant trees, shrubs and flowers that thrive in cool climates. It's the combination of these exotics with the wonderful natural bushland of the Mountains that makes the area so special.
Spring is a prime time to see this treasure house of nature. With the end of winter, the deciduous trees and shrubs once again sprout leaves, and spring blossoms burst out in a rainbow of colours. This is the time of the famous Spring Gardens Festivals of the Mountains - the Leura Gardens Festival, the Blackheath Rhododendron Festival and more.
