The  Sakura or cherry blossom season is gone!

★The shower of cherry blossom petals

The calyces and fresh leaves of the cherry blossom after falling of the petals.


The petals of the Sakura or cherry blossom have begun to leave from the tree   branches , scattering in the wind like petal’s confetti.     The petals, as well as the leaves, can be harvested and salted for use in a variety of dishes and a traditional tea called Sakura-cha. They can also be used for dyes. The Sakura is the flower that keeps on giving and the biggest  gift is reliability that every year , the trees will bear their blossoms. Another winter has passed, and our souls are filled with hope.
