A little earlier spring scene <Okanzakura>

R0020716LS.JPG R0020672RSGC.JPG   The early blooming "Okanzakura" on the Sumida River Terrace on the south side of Eitai Bridge westfill blooms.

Okanzakura is said to be a hybrid between Kanhizakura and oshima cherry. The tree height is about 5 to 10 meters, the crown is large, the light red petals are round and large, and there are many fine cuts at the tip.

Along with "Kanzakura" and "Kawazu Sakura", which begin to bloom a little earlier, it makes you feel the coming of spring a little earlier.

brown-eared bulbul immediately came to smoke nectar. (Photo right)
