Beautiful Flower Field Photos
The fields today are a direct result of over 85 years of floral cultivation that began when Luther Gage, an early settler and grower settled in the area in the early 1920’s. Mr. Gage brought Ranunculus seeds to the area and began growing them in his fields next to Frank Frazee’s small vegetable farm in South Oceanside.

This started a business called “Luther Gage Giant Tecolote Ranunculus bulbs”. The name “Tecolote” came from the owls that nested on his property.














Due to the continued benevolence and foresight of the Ecke family, The Flower Fields will continue to be a national jewel, an attraction enjoyed for many future generations.
