The peak of flowering in Leonardsley falls in the month of May, but this flowering season begins in April, when magnolias, daffodils, and camellias bloom. The next blooming wave is the famous rhododendrons and azaleas, which can be seen both along the ponds and throughout the park. The collection of these wonderful flowering plants is one of the best in the whole world.
In the summer, the Leonardsley garden is also very tempting. During this period, trees and shrubs bloom in the park, which have a calmer coloring, but are also very attractive. The blooming wildflowers here, as well as overgrown plants near rivers and lakes, look romantic.
The autumn season in the park is very colorful. The gray everyday life of this time of the year is not felt here, because everything burns with a variety of colors.
