This splendid tree looks a lot like the ones on Brooklyn Botanic Garden's Esplanade — but it's on Ovington Avenue in Bay Ridge. Eagle photos by Lore Croghan

The skies are smiling in Brooklyn, and blossoms are bursting forth all over the borough.

We hear the famous cherry blossoms in Brooklyn Botanic Garden are looking absolutely spectacular these days.

But those who are too short on time to make a visit to the famed garden are likely to find flora galore on quick strolls in their own neighborhoods.

Take Bay Ridge, for instance. The stately Verrazano-Narrows Bridge isn’t the only photo-worthy sight in springtime. Dazzling blooms can be found at every turn.
