Lucille's favorite time of year is finally underway: The sunflowers at Dorothea Dix Park's Sunflower Field are in full bloom.
Driving the news: The city planted between 80,000 and 100,000 black oil sunflower hybrid seeds in May.
The five-acre field is a pollinator habitat for bees, butterflies and other wildlife, and is expected to attract more than 100,000 people during peak bloom.
What to expect: Peak bloom doesn't last long, at around two weeks, so get there as soon as you can.
The park posts updates on the field on its Instagram every Wednesday.
Visit any day of the week between dawn and dusk.
Check the park's website for directions and parking.
