4 Varieties Of Cherries Blossoming Now At Fremont's Shinn Historical Park

FREMONT, CA — Janet Barton reached out with photos, to let Fremont residents know that the cherries are just starting to bloom in the Japanese Garden at Shinn Historial Park & Arboretum in Fremont.

Docents Al and Maggie, in period costumes, posed with the blossoms on Wednesday. "There are so many other flowering trees and shrubs now in the park," said Barton.

Shinn Historical Park is a former nursery and ranch dating to 1856, now maintained by the City of Fremont and volunteers. (Who needs a wedding venue?)
