In late November through the first of the new year, The Flower Fields celebrate the holidays with an unusual display of poinsettias. Guests are encouraged to walk through the fields to experience the "Poinsettia Star" up close and take in the panoramic view overlooking the Pacific Ocean. March through April the fields are planted with rainbows of ranuculas which are a visual delight from the air, from your car as well as on foot.
