A Local’s Guide to Gorgeous Flowers in the Pacific Northwest

In this post I am sharing some of the best places to find flowers throughout the Pacific Northwest. Since I live in Oregon, most of the locations featured here are local to me, but I have also included a few amazing spots not to be missed in Washington. Rather than write extensive details on each place, I’ve added photos to help you discover what you can expect. Each month features the flowers in peak bloom during that month.
