Cherry Trees

The Brooklyn Botanic Garden is home to a “world-famous” collection of cherry trees, whose annual blossoming is a pilgrimage site for Brooklynites and the rest of the city. They’re also the subject of an annual festival, which happens to be this weekend! Some of the trees have already started to bloom, and a few are in full bloom, but most have yet to do so, meaning you have some time to check them out. Keep abreast of their blossomings on this handy website. [photo]
