Listen up, all you earth mamas and Dylan-lovin' daddies. Can you dig it? The Dallas Arboretum will flash back to the flower power era during the annual Dallas Blooms festival, which runs March 10 through April 15. In addition to 400,000 blooming bulbs, 3,000 azaleas and thousands of other annuals and perennials throughout the 66-acre gardens, special activities and shows are planned during the festival. Here are a few highlights: The center's tradition of cool bloom-based creations will continue this year with a big flower-filled butterfly, as well as two flower-topped Volkswagens (a bug and a van).

The concert lineup includes Dave Tapley and his '60s musical revue on Thursday and an Elvis tribute act on April 12. On March 21 and 24-25, the DeGolyer estate will feature a fashion exhibit with designs from the '60s. Also, catch horse-drawn carriage rides, Saturday craft activities and children's concerts (David Chicken performs March 14 at 11 a.m.). The spring tea series at the DeGolyer estate will run March 12 through May 31 (reservations are required). Charter a coach bus to bring the whole family to enjoy a day in this beautiful place.
