@brook Very pretty. What's the culture meaning (assuming there is one?)

@WestFox35 i’m not brook but it is my understanding they celebrate sakura because of the fleeting beauty of life. 🌸

@WestFox35 don't think i'm qualified to answer that, better off looking it up. it's certainly an important symbol for the country.

@brook silly question – isn’t it a bit early for sakura blooming?

@praetorianpi it is! but there are lots of different varieties and they bloom at different times. I think these are kawazuzakura, and they bloom right about now (at least around here). The main peak season won't be for another 3 weeks or so for the most common kinds.
