Hershey Gardens to Feature Thousands of Tulips This Spring
Visitors can see more than 27,000 tulips in 39 varieties this Easter weekend 2025
Spring has arrived, and with it the much anticipated tulip display at Hershey Gardens. This year, guests can immerse themselves in a vibrant sea of 27,500 tulips, showcasing 39 unique varieties. From delicate pastels to bold, striking hues, this season’s display will be a showstopper.
Visitors can see the tulips during normal operating hours daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., including Easter Sunday. But, hurry! Given the weather, the tulips are not expected to last long.
“We will be featuring 19 new cultivars, along with some of my previous favorites,” said Alyssa Hagarman, horticulture specialist. “In addition to the tulips, we also added bulbs to the Senses Garden: a foxtail lily mix - Fritillaria ‘Twin Towers Tribute’ and Spanish bluebells.”
The tradition of tulip displays at Hershey Gardens dates back to 1942, when the first seasonal exhibit was introduced to herald the arrival of spring. Over the decades, this display has continued, captivating guests with its beauty and variety.
Tickets to Hershey Gardens can be purchased online at HersheyGardens.org or at the door upon arrival.
Overlooking the town of Hershey, Pa., Hershey Gardens features 23 acres of botanical beauty with a breathtaking assortment of flowers and shrubs, a stately collection of rare and signature trees, themed gardens, a Butterfly Atrium, The Children's Garden and BugZone.
