Here are photos of Cherry Blossom time at the Japanese Garden and Waterfront Park on almost the exact same date as the 2025 photos in the previous post. It was a very different winter season, milder this year and almost no snow. The cherry trees at the Waterfront were mostly on the same schedule as the year before, but at the slightly higher elevation of the Japanese Garden, the Yoshino cherries were in full bloom this year, and barely budding after the colder winter last year.
