Flower Lovers Event!!
Spring Flower Bloom 2026! Totally Free springtime event! Mark your calendars! Tell your friends!
Serenity Moss Garden has taken over 10 years and 300,000 floral pins to develop. The garden covers an entire hillside area, approximately 10,000 square feet on Long John Mountain. More than seventy different varieties of ephemeral flowers bloom throughout the moss during the springtime.
The garden is viewed from a 100 foot long wood-chip trail walk-around. Please plan on wearing secure shoes (not flip flops) as there are a couple of short inclines. (Small children must hold their parents hands at all times)
No pets, please.
Our address is 253 Park Lane, Hendersonville, NC. We are at the very end of Park Lane. Please park in the cul-de-sac and walk up the driveway. (More info, a list of plants and video at SerenityMossGarden.com)
See you there!
