Where’s the best place in London to see cherry tree blossom today ?

[LisaVanderpumpy]

Seen any nice ones atm ? Thinking of heading to Notting Hill or to one of the parks

We used to live right around the corner from there. School run time is mad!

@LisaVanderpumpy I just went on to TikTok and discovered it is definitely a thing! Never heard of it. Stanley Crescent seems to be the place to go.

I’m glad I don’t live on Stanley Crescent. That would drive me mad.

Greenwich Park's Cherry Tree Avenue should start to make a proper appearance towards the end of next week. The photo shows what it looked like yesterday (4 April 2026). I'm keeping this website updated every couple of days isthecherryblossomoutatgreenwichparkyet.wordpress.com/

There are other lovely trees in the park that are in blossom now (particularly the crab apples (#3 on the map) near the Roman temple and the cherry and crab apple in Rangers House inner garden (which also features in Bridgerton, #10 on the map).

On Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays there's a free mobility buggy service, open to all but prioritised by need. It stops at the Cutty Sark end (St Mary's Gate), at the main Pavilion café in the middle of the park, and at Vanbrugh Gate (by Ignatius Sancho café and an excellent cherry tree in the Flower Garden, not in bloom yet). Lots of loos.

Quickest entrance for Cherry Tree Avenue is Blackheath Gate but entering by Chesterfield Gate will show you even more lovely cherry blossom trees en route.
