Prunus serrulata (Japanese flowering cherry)
The term 'Japanese flowering cherry' is complicated. Most of the flowering cherry trees you see are complex cultivars and they don't produce edible fruit because they have been selected, purely on the basis of their 'prettiness', for hundreds of years. On Saturday, I went to the Sakura Days Festival at the Van Dusen Botanical Garden in Vancouver but it was quite crowded and there were simply not enough cherry trees for my liking. However, I found this beautiful, highly-doubled specimen a few blocks away and I was delighted.

Much like bellis perennis, one can never have enough Japanese cherry trees. Or Japanese cherry tree blossoms.

この時期には、桜はもう散り始めていました。咲いて散る期間が桜は短いですよね。大寒桜/安行寒桜は早くから咲きで淡紅色が綺麗です。
しかし、この大きは… 誰かが落としたのでしょうか。。
