Pella’s famous flowers are approaching their peak as the annual Tulip Festival draws near.

According to the latest bloom status map provided by the city of Pella, multiple beds are in full bloom.

Pella Convention and Visitors Bureau Executive Director Jill Vandevoort encourages visitors to come early for the tulips over the new few weeks and return for the heritage during the 82nd annual Tulip Time May 4th through the 6th.
