daffodil bloom time for the Boston Marathon route?

Linda G (zone 6a)

Planning on a trip down the Boston Marathon route and hope to view all the daffodils that were planted in part by the Mass. Hort. Society. Anyone familiar with the route from Hopkinton to Wellesley that could take a guess on the best time to see the daffodils in bloom? Thank!

The daffodils are throwing up some green now. I think they generally bloom late April?

The race is Patriot's Day, which is the 18th? this year? So if the plan is for the daffodils to be putting on their best show around that time, mid to late April would be it.
