What's Blooming

This Season in the Garden

Welcome to winter in California! Soak up the sun and holiday blooms, illuminated by glittering lights all day and night.

Flower Stripes Meadow
The fan-shaped leaves of the Ginkgo trees have turned a blazing golden yellow, bringing gorgeous fall color to the Garden.
Filoli's two magnificent Camperdown Elms are a sight to behold in the winter as bright yellow leaves fall and reveal twisting branches. This contorted variety was first discovered at the Camperdown estate in Scotland.
The English Holly shrubs in the Walled Garden are getting in the holiday spirit with their bright red berries!
Commonly known as Chilean Bellflower, Lapageria rosea is the national flower of Chile. The vine blooms year round. Spot it on your left before you enter the Chartres Garden.
One of the season's earliest blooming camellias is the white variety Camellia sasanqua 'Narumi-Gata' in the Walled Garden.
Potted blooms of many varieties fill the House for the holidays! This pink Poinsettia is right at home in the parlor.
Look for the upswept violet and white blooms of Ivy-Leaved Cyclamen throughout the Woodland Garden. Some say the flowers look like butterflies in flight!
The 100-year-old Dwarf Pomegranate shrubs are providing their own seasonal ornaments along the back of the House!
