In a sentence

桜(さくら)cherry blossomsが満開(まんかい)full bloomです

Cherry blossoms are in full bloom

How it works

The subject が (subject) marks 桜(さくら) (cherry blossoms) as what we're spotlighting right now — that fresh-news feeling, "look, the cherry blossoms!" Then comes the description 満開(まんかい) (full bloom), with polite です (is) landing at the very end to tie it all together.
