Walking Tour of Carlsbad Flower Fields California

Carlsbad Flower Fields Walking Tour. Walking tour of Carlsbad Flower Fields California. The Flower Fields at Carlsbad Ranch are the result of over 85 years of floral cultivation. Its history dates back to the early 1920s, when horticulturist Luther Gage settled in the area, and brought ranunculus seeds with him. Gage began growing the seeds next to Frank Frazee’s small vegetable farm in Oceanside. Eventually, Frazee also started growing ranunculus, and taught his son Edwin to learn to grow them. It was Edwin Frazee who moved the operation to its current site in 1965, and cultivated the flower field to its present form. At first, the fields only had red and yellow flowers. Frazee would carefully select seeds that produced ranunculus flowers in various colors, and replant them the following year. After years of careful selection and hard work, the fields grew into what you see today, with full flowers blooming in 13 different colors. The Flower Fields currently reside on land owned by the Ecke family, who previously used the land to grow poinsettias. The Eckes had a vision for bringing in tourism to finally sustain their agricultural operations, which is how the fields became a tourist destination. Today, the Flower Fields at Carlsbad Ranch stretches across 55 acres. The ranunculus flowers grow on 50 acros, and the remaining five acres are devoted to other specialty blooms. It has become a favorite spring destination for Southern California residents, many of whom visit on a yearly basis. The Flower Fields are located in Carlsbad, California, located about 35 miles north of San Diego. It is about a 35 minute drive from downtown San Diego, about an hour from Orange County, and an hour and 30 minutes from Los Angeles (depending on traffic), making the Carlsbad Flower Fields a fun day trip from any of these destinations. The Carlsbad Flower Fields are open every year from March 1 to First week of May. Peak bloom is usually at the end of March to the beginning of April. What you see blooming at the Carlsbad Flower Fields are ranunculus flowers, officially known as Tecolote Giant Ranunculus. These flowers are native to the Asia Minor region (Turkey/Armenia), and are also sometimes referred to as Persian Buttercup or Ranunculus Asiatic flowers. Carlsbad provides perfect growing conditions for the Giant Ranunculus, with its sunny but not-too-hot days, ocean breeze, and mild winters. The Flower Fields stretch across 50 acres, with millions of flowers in bloom, in every color of the rainbow. You’ll find designated photo spots around the fields, with a cutout in the flowers so that people can walk through the area and snap some photos. There are also benches set out in the photo areas so people can sit and take photos as well. #CarlsbadFlowerFields #CarlsbadFlowerFieldsCalifornia #FlowerFieldsCarlsbad #CarlsbadFlowerFields2022 #CaliforniaFlowerFields Chapters: 0:00 Intro 1:42 Flower Fields 4:55 Poinsettias 5:18 Santa's Playground 5:30 Sweet Pea Maze 5:48 Food 6:15 Armstrong Garden Center Spring Wildflower At Chino Hills State Park:    • Spring Wild Flowers at Chino Hills State P...   Descanso Garden's Spring Bloom:    • Descanso Gardens Spring Bloom Walking Tour   Descanso Garden Tulip:    • Tulips Bloom at Descanso Gardens!   Website : http://www.travelwithsuri.com​​​​​ Facebook :   / travelwithsuri   Instagram :   / travelwithsuri​   Twitter :   / travelwithsuri
