cerejeira-branca

O símbolo por excelência da primavera no Japão, as cerejeiras japonesas produzem efêmeras nuvens de flores brancas e rosas a cada primavera — um evento cultural chamado hanami (contemplação das flores) celebrado há séculos. Atingindo até 25 metros, foram domesticadas a partir de espécies silvestres de Prunus ao longo de mais de um milênio de cultivo seletivo, produzindo principalmente variedades ornamentais estéreis que se propagam por enxertia. Mais de 200 cultivares são reconhecidos, sendo o Somei Yoshino responsável pela maioria das famosas alamedas de cerejeiras do Japão.
