CHICAGO (CBS) -- Springtime means cherry blossoms in Jackson Park.

The Chicago Park District is keeping a close eye on the cherry trees in the Columbia Basin of Jackson Park and is inviting everyone to come out and watch them bloom!

Park officials said if the weather cooperates, more than 160 pink and white cherry trees could reach full bloom within the next week.
