As a long-time resident of DC (most of my 55 years), I never tire of the Cherry Blossoms. I went to both Kenwood and the Tidal Basin this year and passed right by where this pic was taken. The best way to avoid getting stuck in traffic and not finding parking is to do what we do -- bike it!!! Both places are right off major bike trails in our area. Riding under a canopy of cherry trees is just the best!! Great pics! As a long-time resident of DC (most of my 55 years), I never tire of the Cherry Blossoms.

I see why people would want to drive down the streets, but can't imagine camping out on an owner's front porch without permission. Yikes! You have a terrific gardening blog. Well done!

I have not yet ever seen the D.C. cherry trees but hope to see them some day. Now, I can add this neighborhood to the triptic. Perhaps you could give all of us who live a distance a week's notice next year before the bloom? They are definitely on my list to see and thanks to global warming, perhaps I can put a few in the yard and have them bloom. Susan, thank you for that post!

I'm uploading all my pictures now. I was so much happier going there. It was like a 'winter wonderland' of flowers. The Tidal Basin sucks compared. Truly, it really isn't anything compared.....that is, if you're not a tourist You’re so so so very right! I’m uploading all my pictures now. I was so much happier going there.
