The popular Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point takes a year of planning and preparation. Modern Gardener recently visited the festival, springing up annually at Ashton Gardens, to get a behind-the-scenes look into what it takes to put on one of Utah's most popular spring-time attractions. Garden and Landscape Director Tony Latimer tells us all about it, as well as give tips for tulip planting and care, and lets us in on what new attractions can be found at this year's festival!

The Thanksgiving Point Tulip Festival runs until May 5th, but patrons can find many tulips still opening for about a week afterward.

For more information, visit the Ashton Gardens website.
