Logan Square on Benjamin Franklin Parkway,
Ever since Logan Circle opened in the 1920's, its princess trees have been local favorites. Their clusters of purplish flowers appear in early spring before the leaves, creating a mist of delicate colors over the fountain sprays. The surrounding beds of flowers and shrubs were originally designed in a formal French pattern, but have since been changed to a looser, more Romantic English style. Masses of tulips, dallies, grape hyacinths, and azaleas bloom in season. For many years the fountain was framed by a magnificent circle of Paulownia trees, which have since been replaced.
