Mother’s Day is always an extra special day at the Arboretum. For decades, a family stroll down Azalea Way on Mother’s Day, with the azaleas in peak bloom, has been a Seattle rite of spring.
Looking for a meaningful way to celebrate mom, grandma, or a mother figure in your life? The Arboretum not only offers a beautiful setting but also a variety of thoughtful gift options to make this Mother’s Day—Sunday, May 11—one to remember.
