Every spring, Coronado’s front yards become a quiet competition of color, texture, and care. The Coronado Floral Association is proud to announce this year’s Home Front Judging winners — and to invite the community to celebrate them in person. A free self-guided walking or biking tour through the island’s award-winning gardens is part of the 104th Coronado Flower Show weekend (April 18-19).

A heartfelt thank you to 2026 volunteers
“You, our volunteers, were out in force — walking, admiring, judging, and awarding the stunning Home Front Judging ribbons of our 104th Coronado Flower Show. Every volunteer takes this task quite seriously, and we are continuously amazed at your dedication, positive energy, and pride in community. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. We could not have navigated the ‘Jungle’ without you.”
