Pella’s favorite flowers are starting their ascent to bloom across the community. The Pella Community Services Department reports several flowers are showing color, and that will only increase as warmer, sunnier days are in the forecast over the next week. The department believes peak bloom is coming in the next few weeks. Pella Police Captain Paul Haase reminds the public to use caution near parks and downtown Pella as crowds come to view the spring bloom. Find the latest bloom status map from the City of Pella here.
