The tradition of displaying cherry blossoms dates back to ancient times when monarchs penned poems and chanted music beneath the blossoming trees. Cherry blossom's form and hue represent people's ideals of harmony and elegance. The atmosphere is packed with pink fronds and a good fragrance as the breeze brushes the delicate flowers of Cherry Blossom. Among everything, there is indeed a list of spring-flowering trees like passion fruit, cherry, and walnut trees.
