Colorblends House & Spring Garden — Attraction in Bridgeport

This Bridgeport flower garden is open seasonally March 29 through May 11, 2025 from dusk till dawn. The restored 1903 Colonial Revival mansion, which also serves as an art gallery for various artists, is open Tuesdays through Sunday, 10-4. I came to attend a yoga class amongst the blooming crocus, dandelions, snowdrops and tulips. Who knew there were so many varieties of daffodils! Gorgeous and serene area and such a wonderful way to celebrate spring, renewal, and rejuvenation. Easy walk around the grounds. The mansion was also impressively gorgeous and it was fun to walk through it and check out various artists' works. There is a box before entering the mansion to drop a donation in if so inclined. There are restrooms and on street parking only. I will visit again in a week or so to see if the other batches of tulips have bloomed, and plan to visit here...

You will also see signs describing gardening methods in front of piled high gatherings of twigs and branches that at first look like piles of brush. But then the sign describes various techniques to use leftover brush in a special, organic way that visitors, I am sure, go home to try in their own yards and gardens. The house is closed to visitors, but you can still admire it's classical design as well as plan to return when it is once again open to the public.
