Ornamental cherry trees, depending on the variety, will be in bloom between late March and mid-April.
“The anticipation of when peak bloom is going to happen, we can never know because there’s so many variables,” Sara Evans, senior manager and curator of the living collection at The Green-Wood Cemetery, told Patch last season.
Evans recommended multiple visits at Green-Wood and other spots throughout the cherry blossom season to see the blooms in their full variety.
