Hello ExplorerSB, It is difficult to determine when the Cherry Trees will blossoms, because it depends on the weather. But in general, they should blossom anywhere from mid-March through the end of March. We have 40 Cherry Trees lining the main driveway leading up to the gardens. In addition there are several trees throughout the gardens. In addition to the Cherry Trees, the Wisteria will be in bloom sometime from the end of March through April. The Azaleas will also be adding lots of color throughout the gardens at the same time.
