Cherry Blossom Season
Chifuyu Omma from Japan



In Japan, there are four seasons in a year, so we can see many kinds of flowers each season. The best one among them would be the season of cherry blossoms. At the beginning of April (spring) cherry blossoms are in full bloom  

Then we go not only to appreciate the cherry trees, but also to make a big picnic party under the cherry trees. It is called "O-hanami" in Japanese. 

the cherry trees aren't cherrys , this are flowers with the cherry colors

 is the Japanese traditional custom of enjoying the beauty of flowers, "flower" in this case almost always meaningcherry blossoms ("sakura") or (less often) plum blossomsFrom the end of March to early May, sakura bloom all over Japan, and around the first of February on the island of Okinawa
