Daffodil Hill, Volcano
This famous garden started with plantings from homesteaders during the 19th century and has continued to expand intermittently ever since. At 3000′ elevation in the Sierra, it usually opens in mid- to late-March – and lasts only a few weeks. It varies greatly according to the Spring weather.
Contact the Business and Professional Association in Sutter Creek, the Amador County Information Center, or the California Automobile Association for information before you go.
Kautz Ironstone Vineyards, Murphys
KIV has perhaps the largest planned landscaping of daffodils in California. One’s breath is taken away upon rounding the hill and seeing the daffodils blooming everywhere in front of you. The peak of bloom is mid-March; coinciding with KIV’s annual weekend festival “Spring Symphony of Wine and Daffodils.” The NCDS holds a daffodil show at KIV during the festival. KIV has extensive gardens; something major is in bloom at nearly any time in the year. Murphys is filled with boutiques and restaurants.
