The Flower Fields' attractions include its "Tecolote Giant Ranunculus", a greenhouse filled with cymbidium orchids, a 300-by-170-foot American flag made out of red, white, and blue petunias,[2] as well as the Field's "sweet pea maze."[3] The Fields offer Tractor-Wagon rides with John Deere tractors and custom wagons around the plantings of Tecolote Giant Ranunculus, Sunflowers and (depending on the availability) Pick Ur Own Blueberries, allowing two stops for riders to get off and on the wagon.
The Flower Fields also hosts a variety of musical and themed events. Past events have included Kid's Day, Bluegrass Day and Zydeco Day.[2]
More than 180 volunteers, led by Carlsbad resident Joni Miringoff, lead educational tours of the Fields for both adults and children. In 2015, it was anticipated that there would be more than 7,000 school children visiting the fields on these educational tours.[4]
In 2012, the color variants of the flowers were changed for the first time since 1997.[5] The land under the Flower Fields has been used for the a variety of different purposes, including amusement parks, shopping malls, and resorts. However, in 2015, the Flower Fields gained official protection from further development.[6]
In 2015, The Flower Fields increased the cost of admission by one dollar in order to compensate for increased expenditure due to severe drought.[7]
