When do cherry blossoms bloom?

Cherry blossoms usually bloom in March and April, so they are in spring. Spring, also known as spring, is the first of the four seasons, which refers to the period from beginning of spring to long summer, including solar terms such as beginning of spring, rain, fright, vernal equinox, Qingming and Grain Rain. This is the season when everything comes back to life. The Gregorian calendar in the northern hemisphere is from March to May.

Cherry blossoms are native to the temperate zone around the Himalayas in the northern hemisphere and grow all over the world, mainly in Japan. Each branch has 3 to 5 flowers, which are umbrella-shaped, with notches at the top of petals, mostly white and pink. Flowers often bloom in March with or after leaves. With the change of seasons, cherry blossoms are fragrant and gorgeous, and are often used for garden viewing. Cherry blossoms can be divided into single petals and compound petals. A single petal can blossom and bear fruit, and most of the compound petals do not bear fruit.

According to literature research, cherry blossoms were planted in the court of China during the Qin and Han Dynasties more than two thousand years ago. Cherry blossoms have generally appeared in private courtyards in the Tang Dynasty.
