Archived Introduction
The metaphor of spring emerging from a cold winter has always had a particular resonance for poets, artists, dreamers, and nature lovers. For this contest, we want you to cover your favorite seasonal gardens and botanical spots. (If you have a place in mind that isn't on our list, send it to suggestions@trazzler.com.)
Our winners will enjoy a free hotel night in the region of their choice and a contract to write about or photograph five spring gardens, arboretums, or other flower-friendly spots.
