A Little About
Baguio's Wild Sunflowers
One of the greatest joys of living in Baguio would be to putter around one's garden and watch beautiful flowers grow. It is a city where wild sunflowers, poinsettias and bougainvillea abound without much effort.
Wild sunflowers are always a welcome sight as they signal to the residents the end of the Philippines' wet season, usually in the month of October (November at the latest). They dot the hillsides with their faces following the movement of the sun.
The picking of these wildflowers is prohibited.
These mini parks are maintained year-round and compete at the annual Panagbenga (Baguio Flower Festival) landscaping competitions.
