Imagine... 

Pink clouds of cherry blossoms reflected on a lake.

A statue of a President with a backdrop of 
Classical architecture in
 marble and Japanese Lanterns.

Are you thinking... 
Washington, D.C.?
​


Well ... Think Again!

It's all here in Buffalo, NY, in the Japanese Garden, in Delaware Park.

Why Drive all the way to Washington, DC, 
When you can see a Springtime Blizzard in Buffalo.

A blizzard of Cherry Blossoms, that is.
  
Our blossoms bloom just after those in Washington, DC.  


Why not make it a Journey of it?

Take photos,
Not flowers.

The trees are fragile. 

And
Don't Shake the Trees.
(Let the blossoms
fall naturally. )
