Here's the offical festival guide which should be able to provide you with a lot of helpful information.
Usually the first part of April is the best time.

I was there last year during the festival and this year it's April 3-5 and you'll have a great time, they say that anytime between the 1-12 of April is a good time to see them...
As to where the best place to go? The tidal basin down by the Jefferson memorial is the best place to go, there's a really nice walkway along the basin, it's really pretty- pack a lunch and a bottle of wine and just sit and people watch and enjoy the smell!!
