Welcome to spring — a perfect time to visit the gardens at Descanso, the Getty, and the Huntington, where everything from camellias to cherry blossoms to roses is in bloom.

Grab a friend, read on to find out what is blooming around the city, and forget about the world for a while.

“Science has never drummed up quite as effective a tranquilizing agent as a sunny spring day." – W. Earl Hall
