Torontos cherry blossom watch says its almost time for popular spring pilgrimage – Toronto [Video]

Toronto’s largest public park says its famous cherry blossom trees are showing their first signs of impending bloom.

Every year, thousands of locals and visitors descend on High Park during peak cherry bloom season and the park’s nature centre says it’s almost time to make that pilgrimage again.

The centre says cherry blossom trees in the park are in Stage 1 of the bloom development process, which means the buds appear “fat, round, healthy and green.”

It says that’s the very first sign of their impending arrival, but it’s still early to make a definitive prediction on when peak blooms will occur.

However, High Park’s cherry blossoms usually reach peak bloom between late April and early May.

The High Park Nature Centre says peak bloom depends on weather and only lasts about a week, so it encourages visitors to keep checking its website for the latest updates.
