Every year, high in the San Bernardino mountain range of Southern California, five acres of beautiful daffodils burst into bloom. Amazingly, this special spot, known as “The Daffodil Garden,” was planted by one person, Gene Bauer, one bulb at a time, beginning in 1958.

The Willow Fire of 1999 destroyed the Bauer’s A-frame home, its surrounding shady trees and garden. Miraculously, the daffodil bulbs beneath the ground survived.

Daffodil Garden News Update - The final season for viewing The Daffodil Garden is underway. The season ends Sunday, April 12, 2009. This is due to the retirement of owners, Gene and Dale Bauer. So, if you ever wanted to see this amazing site now is the time to make the trip!
