Cherry Blossoms

12/April/2017

I enjoyed a trip for about one week.

Sakura (cherry blossoms) in Nagoya Japan this spring.
The season of cherry blossoms in the central part of Japan was over. (Maybe because of unusual weather,) it was too late to bloom cherry blossoms in Japan this year. But they were more beautiful than the average years.

Bits of knowledge of cherry blossoms
(The follow is a case of Somei-yoshino -the most popular Japanese cherry blossoms- and light pink cherry blossoms.)
When cherry blossoms begin blooming, sepals of cherry blossoms are still green and all of petals look pure white or very thin pink. But when sepals and roots of petals become thick pink, cherry blossoms begin falling their petals.
Colour of blossoms let know the rest of blossoms' lives.  In this photo, you can see both cherry blossoms of green sepals' ones and pink sepals' ones.
