There’s still not a lot to see yet. The buds are clearly visible, but they’re in the early stages. The NPS arborists are out doing one of their two annual pruning rounds to keep the trees in tip-top shape. It’s still too early to predict the bloom, but sometime in the window of the last week of March through the first week of April is looking good (ie. an average year insofar as schedule).
