Don't delay . . . see this spectacle NOW!
The Cherry blossoms are in vivid bloom along Chapel Avenue in Cherry Hill, N. J. right now! In fact, they're at their peak. And this is their 50th anniversary -- fifty glorious years of visual delight!Get on over to Chapel Avenue this week or you'll likely miss them.
And, trust me, you don't want to miss this!
And, trust me, you don't want to miss this!
Along a dazzling two mile stretch from Haddonfield Road to Kings Highway the blossoms create bright ribbons of pink. Through the day the color varies slightly as the sun and the clouds help to create a feast for the eyes. As dusk approaches, the show changes again. And the blossoms also vary somewhat by shading and color depending upon whether you are moving east or west along Chapel Avenue.
Walking under the blossoms along the sidewalk on either side of the street is a sensual delight.
But this incredible show only lasts for a week or two so you must hurry if you want to see some of the most magnificent clustered blossoms anywhere.
The blossoms were the brainchild of Joe Zanghi, a visionary Cherry Hill resident who began planting them (along with dozens of volunteers, most notably Cherry Hill firefighters) in 1963. They are a true labor of love by public-spirited citizens -- a gift to the entire community and the region. And none of it would have happened without Joe Zanghi.
These are huge, fancy, clustered blossoms.

Drive slowly, cycle or walk under the blossoms and soak up every magical moment!
