Every year, the Westminster Garden comes to life around April when the tulips start to bloom. During my first year at Whitworth, my greatest surprise was the tulips in the Westminster Garden. Tulips are a flower I have always admired, and I had never seen one growing from the ground before. The tulips, along with the many other colorful trees and flowers, make the garden such a beautiful and vibrant place to be in the spring. Tables, chairs and even the free mini library make the garden a great place to study. The Westminster Garden is the ultimate outdoor spot on campus once the weather warms up. While the garden buzzes with life, I tried to capture this energy through sun-filled pictures, giving you a deep dive into the small corners and aspects of the space. Seeing it from different angles allows you to appreciate the ultimate beauty of the Westminster Garden even more.

Whitworth’s beautiful campus features an array of nature sightings in the spring. From the blooming trees in The Loop to the colorful flowers in the Westminster Garden, there is always something new to see while walking through Whitworth University. As the weather changes from winter to spring, flowers are blooming with color while soaking up the Spokane sunshine. Bees are out pollinating, and birds are gathering resources to make nests. From daffodils to tulips, certain areas on campus are filled with color. So, the next time you walk to class, take a moment to look around and enjoy the spring in Spokane!
