Get your cameras ready! It's officially cherry blossom season.

The New York Botanical Garden has roughly 500 cherry trees that are expected to flower this season, making it a destination for blossoms.

The garden is home to some of the most diverse cherry trees. The Yoshino cherry trees are in mid-season bloom and will remain in bloom for the next few weeks until the late-season cherries take over.

Melissa Finley is the Thain Curator of Woody Plants at the New York Botanical Garden.

"Cherry blossoms are and historically have been very, very popular because of their short bloom period. Something about that effervescent quality I think people find poetic and they're very drawn to it," said Finley.

Cherry trees have a unique history, as more than 3,000 were gifted to New York back in the early 1900's by the Japan Government. While those cherries can be found in Central Park, Finley says many of the same species and cultivars live at the Botanical Garden.

"We have a pretty broad diversity, which is nice since there's a pretty broad bloom time that you can come and visit them," said Finley.

Finley says cherry blossom season will run through May.

The garden has a bloom tracker on their website so you can find the best time to visit Cherry Hill and capture the perfect picture.
