• The cherry blossom (sakura) is Japan's unofficial
  national flower. It has been celebrated for many
  centuries and holds a very prominent position in
  Japanese culture.
• There are many dozens of different cherry tree
  varieties in Japan, most of which bloom for just
  a couple of days in spring. The Japanese
  celebrate that time of the year with hanami
  (cherry blossom viewing) parties under the
  blooming trees.
