Popularly known as sakura in Japanese, cherry blossoms are delicate pink flowers that grow on cherry blossom trees. These trees are commonly found in Japan, China, South Korea and many other parts of Asia.
The exact timing for the blooming of cherry blossoms may differ from place to place and is largely dependent on the weather and temperature. In general, cherry blossom seasons usually begin from mid-March to early May. However, they reach peak bloom during the last week of March and the first week of April. The sakura flowers bloom for about a week, but the temporary sight is surely one to behold.
Like many flowers, cherry blossoms are undeniably pretty to look at. But what makes the sakura so special?
In Japan, cherry blossoms symbolise the arrival of spring and new beginnings. It also reflects the fragility of life. The blooming season of sakura is glorious but short-lived, usually lasting for only about two weeks. As such, sakura is regarded as a reminder for mindfulness and the importance of living in the present moment. To celebrate the spring season and commemorate life, the Japanese will gather under the cherry blossom trees (hanami) with their loved ones during this season, accompanied by various sakura-inspired food and beverages like sake and mochis!
Cherry blossoms also hold an elevated status in China, although for different reasons. The flowers are associated with feminine beauty and represent love. This makes the cherry blossom season exceptionally romantic for couples. If you’re thinking about expressing your love to someone special this spring, a gift from the following sakura collection for 2024 will do the trick!
Experience the beauty of the cherry blossom season by growing your sakura collection in 2024! While we look forward to visiting Japan soon, you can still live the Japanese way of life in Singapore. Spend a day at these onsens in Singapore and treat yourself to some of the most affordable omakase restaurants. Then, toast to the beautiful season with some of the best Japanese whiskeys before you call it a day!
