Cherry Blossoms, Tulips, and Magnolias: Spring Fever in Technicolor at Golden Gate Park

Spring is the best time to visit Golden Gate Park with its riot of flowers blooming all over from the cherry blossoms at the Japanese Tea Garden, to the magnolias in the Botanical Garden, and the tulips in Queen Wilhelmina Garden. Even the cows in the Bison Paddock have got it bad! Here -- instead of telling you, let me show you with my Ode to Spring, a titillating and sometimes not-PG haiku to Spring Rites in six parts. This is a bit suggestively racy so if you are sensitive to that type of content, watch with the audio turned off 😂 Japanese Tea Garden 75 Hagiwara Tea Garden Dr San Francisco, CA 94118 (415) 752-1171 Open 9AM to 6PM every day in Spring & Summer Open 9AM to 5PM every day in Fall & Winter San Francisco Botanical Garden at Strybing Auditorium 1199 9th Avenue San Francisco, CA 94122 (415) 661-1316 Open 7:30AM to 6PM every day in Spring & Summer Open 7:30AM to 5PM every day in Fall & Winter John McLaren Memorial Rhododendron Dell Entrance at John F Kennedy Drive & 36th Street San Francisco, CA Open 5AM to midnight daily National AIDS Memorial Grove Nancy Pelosi Drive &, Bowling Green Drive San Francisco, CA 94122 Open 5AM to 10PM daily (415) 765-0498 Queen Wilhelmina Tulip Garden 1690 John F Kennedy Drive San Francisco, CA 94121 (415) 813-1445 Open 24 hours every day Photo Attributions: Queen Wilhelmina as a Young Woman by Unknown author, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons Peter Paul Ruben’s Venus & Cupid by Dulwich Picture Gallery, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons Music Attributions: Marxist Arrow by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...
