The National Park Service (NPS) predicts that Washington, DC’s famous cherry blossoms will reach peak bloom. march 28 and 31, 2025. The flowers begin to open before that, but those days are predicted to be the best time to see the flowers to the fullest this year.

Peak bloom usually occurs in Washington, DC around the last week of March and the first week of April. It occurred on March 17th, 2024. In 2023, Peak Bloom was March 23rd. In both years, I saw the flowers 2-3 weeks before Peak Bloom.
