Seasons come to pass, each time the same and yet different in ways. Every year, as the months of March and April approach, rippling white and pink flowers bloom on the cherry blossom trees adorning iconic spots such as the Thomas Jefferson Memorial and Tidal Basin signifying the arrival of spring. Another amazing background is the blooming of beautiful magnolia blossoms found in Rawlins Park and Smithsonian Castle just a week before the cherry blossoms bloom.
