You’ll be treated to pleasant weather no matter what time of year you visit. Our climate offers great floral blooms year-round, but visit in the spring and you’ll quickly figure out why Mobile earned the nickname “Azalea City.”
Each spring, thousands of azaleas spread breathtaking colors throughout the city. A great way to experience these blooms is along the Azalea Trail, a driving, walking or running path that stretches throughout the city.
Mobile Botanical Gardens
Mobile Botanical Gardens, a 100-acre paved garden area that’s home to one of the largest collection of plants here on the Gulf Coast. The Gardens’ bragging rights include an astounding array of azaleas and the largest collection of Japanese maple trees anywhere in the Southeast.
Bellingrath Gardens & Home
Bellingrath Gardens is a 65-acre public garden that offers its own stunning display of azaleas in the spring. Afraid you might miss the blooms? Join in before you visit through the Azalea Watch on their website. Nothing says relaxation quite like a casual stroll through a floral-filled garden!
