Cherry blossom is three weeks of it. Flip through the other forty-nine — and watch what's in bloom move up and down the country.
The calendar is the way in. Underneath it sits the ordinary thing — search, filter by month or flower, and open any of the 412 spots.

About 3,000 cherry trees around the castle, about 300 of them in the Nishinomaru Garden (paid), which opens late in the evening in cherry season with the keep lit up behind the trees. Late double-flowered cherries by the Tamatsukuri gate extend the season.
