Get to know Lilacs in depth in a large garden with an old farmhouse to visit as well. If you are a gardener it is a nice hour or two touring the gardens and there is an opportunity to purchase some specimen lilacs. The gardens are part of Woodland's history and must have presented a softer side to what was a rough and ready logging town back when Hulda Klager started growing lilacs. We went when we were new residents in the area to learn more about the town and to support a community effort. My spouse is a gardener and wound up purchasing some lilac 'starts.' I'm not a gardener but learned something of community history.The lilac gardens open time coincides with a Springtime gardening promotion known as Woodland in Bloom. Other gardening attractions at that time are the tulip fields southeast of downtown which are quite spectacular for the relatively short blooming season. A gardener can go home from either the Lilac Gardens or the Tulip fields with plants or bulbs for their own gardens.Woodland is easy to access from exit 21 on I-5 and is about one hour's drive from downtown Portland or two hours south of Seattle.

In the small town of Woodland WA, about 1 hour north of Portland off I-5, there is a very beautiful garden to visit in May! About 5 minutes from the freeway, the garden is only $2 per adult to visit and just a lovely experience. Variety of lilacs in every shade, and other beautiful shrubs. Plan about 1/2 hour to relax and enjoy it.

This is the place to go for lilac afficianados. The varieties on sale in the spring far surpass anywhere else. It's also a peaceful, shady, and beautifully perfumed place when the lilacs are in bloom. The other varieties of trees and the museum-like original owner's house add to the ambience. Just a tour of the house and its artifacts are well worth the price of admission. As a plus, the volunteers are super knowledgable and helpful.

An 1880's Victorian farmhouse and beautiful country garden. If you want an idea of what that (insert plant name here) might look like many decades from now, just stroll around the gardens and check it out. The pathway weaving through a forest of multi-colored and mature lilac trees in full bloom is a wondrous place for a memorable and fragrant experience of a spring morning. There are plenty of other features for plant-freaks to ooh and aah over, like the wisteria-blanketed gazebo, and an enormous, symmetrical viburnum tree. Most of the gardens were planted by Hulda or her parents beginning in the late 1880's, then re-planted after a devastating flood 60-70 years ago. Gardens are open daily, year-round from 10 am to 4 pm. A $3 entrance fee is charged. Kids under 12 enter for free. Lilac Days are celebrated in the 3 weeks leading up to and including Mother's Day. I barely mentioned the house, which is a lovingly restored, immaculately preserved historical wonder in and of its own self. Hilda's Farmhouse and the gift shop are only open to the public during Lilac Days.This place gets predictably busy on dry spring weekends, one must maneuver slowly and carefully when surrounded by a touristy throng inside Hulda's Farmhouse house and the little gift shop, which can be a challenge if you're of large build. Many varieties of lilac starts are sold here, but only during the annual Lilac Days celebration, and the most popular among them are quickly exhausted.

A friend took met to these lilac gardens yesterday ---I didn't know what to expect. What a treat for flower lovers. The ladies of the Lilac Society are maintaining these beautiful gardens and the lovely old house---a hidden gem. $2 to tour the house and gardens---a fabulous bargain. Hundreds of lilac trees and bushes, each a different variety and color. Sweet gift shop and fresh flowers and plants for sale. Open only in April and May, until Mother's Day. You won't be disappointed! What a special place.

Rebuilt by former visitors, it's incredible to see so many different variations of one species of tree. The gardens are pretty and a good place for a bench picnic.

Lovely grounds that are sweetly scented by lilacs. A great little nursery so that if you see something you like, you can get it there...as long as it's a lilac. The house is set up as a museum and well worth the wander. There is a small gift shop that has a nice selection of lilac themed gifts including a lot of china. Many tea sets and other items of china. A nice stop.

Although I visited in September which is past the spring time lilac season, I enjoyed visiting the gardens. There is a small fee to pay at the unmanned station as one enters the park. There is a nice historic home here as well as a pretty garden area to explore. Regarding the name, Hilda Klager lived here and designed the beautiful gardens.Parking is free and right at the entrance to the gardens.The amount of time to visit to gardens is based on the time of season. When I visited it was less than an hour. But given the number of unique lilac plants in the garden, I would probably plan 1 to 2 hours when the gardens are at their prime. It is a very beautiful place to visit.

I love this lilac garden, it is amazing place. There are not just lilacs blooming, but many others trees and flowers. GREAT TIME FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY. Also, they are selling lilac bushes for visitors to buy and plant at home. P.S. Don't forget to visit their web site for the best time to come, when everything is blooming.

I recently took 14 people on a day trip from our senior center to the Lilac Gardens. Even though I have been there numerous times, almost everyone on our bus had never heard of or been to the gardens. Needless to say, we had fantastic, clear blue skies and warm weather which made the tour even nicer. A tour of the Victorian house and the furnishings were wonderful to see.Hopefully, in the future I will be able to escort more people that have not been to the gardens for them to enjoy the history and the flowers that Hulda Klager did, so many years ago.
