When do the cherry blossoms bloom?
Mid-March in Beacon Hill Park. Early April for the bigger Akebono trees on Government Street.
Victoria's blossom season runs roughly from the first week of March to mid-April. The early bloomers (Okame, Whitcomb) start in Beacon Hill Park and along the Dallas Road waterfront. The big-show Akebono and Kanzan come a few weeks later — Government Street, Cook Street Village, and the Uplands. Peak is usually around the third week of March. Bring a coat anyway; we're still on the Pacific.
