［Lineup.]

・Someiyoshino

The most commonly known cherry blossom in Japan. It is said that the name comes from a gardener around Edo era(17th-19th century) in the "Somei" village.

・Oh-kanzakura

It origins from a house of Ichiro Tanaka in Angyo, Saitama-prefecture, therefore also known as “Angyo kanzakura". It has a bigger flower than normal “kanzakura", becoming beautiful full bloom in 1 week ahead of ‘Somei-yoshino".

・Kawazuzakura

・Yaebenishidare

A garden variety of sakura popular since Edo Period (17~19th century). A tree at Heian Shrine in Kyoto has a special popularity, appearing in the book by a famous Japanese writer Junichiro Tanizaki “Sasameyuki” as well as by Yasunari Kawabata “Koto”.

・Komatsu-otome

These petals, smaller than the Somei-yoshino, are known for their rounded shape and the slightly deeper color of the tips. The name, Komatsu-otome, was chosen for this cuteness (otome meaning “young lady”), and because the original tree is located close to the Equestrian statue of Prince Komatsu Akihito in Ueno Park.

・【New】Suisyou

The most commonly known cherry blossom in Japan. It is said that the name comes from a gardener around Edo era(17th-19th century) in the "Somei" village. The gardener started distributing the cultivar under the name "Yoshino."

・【New】Royal80

It has double-petaled, light red flowers.

It was developed in 1990 as part of a project to commemorate the 500th anniversary of the opening of the Q Museum in the U.K. It was created by crossing Ichiyo, Goshozakura, and Yamazakura cherry trees, and then adding Fudanzakura.

・【New/limited set】First lady princess

It is based on a variety of cherry tree planted in 1912 along the Potomac River in Washington, D.C., U.S.A., as a symbol of goodwill between Japan and the United States.

The “Princess” variety was developed in the U.S. in 1982 by crossing with the scarlet cherry, and was improved over a period of about 20 years.

・【New/limited set】Ikino-yamazakura

It is a variety that produces more flowers than the regular yamazakura, with pure white flowers blooming around the beginning of April.

It can be grown on the coast because of its resistance to sea breezes, and it grows quickly.

There are several varieties of Ikinoyama-zakura, and the color of the calyx and young leaves differs with each variety.
