Blossom Hill is a summit in Rome, Georgia.[2] With an elevation of 784 feet (239 m), Blossom Hill is the 901st highest summit in the state of Georgia.[1] It is considered to be one of the Seven Hills of Rome, Georgia.[4][5] Jackson Hill is located about 0.3 miles (0.48 km) south of the summit.[3]
Blossom Hill was named from the fact a local girl picked flowers there.[6] In 1939, the Bruce Hamler Water Treatment Plant, named for a former city manager, was constructed on the hill.[4]
