【No. 0279】Someiyoshino

Sep 23, 2015 13:22
Many Japanese like cherry trees, especially Someiyoshino.

Because all flowers bloom and fall at once, and it looks beautiful.

It is also said that about 80% of Japanese cherry trees is Someiyoshino.

However, in fact the Someiyoshino is an artificial cherry tree, that is a hybrid of Prunus speciosa(Oshimazakura) and Prunus pendula(Edohigan).

And, since it was born in Somei Village and sold as a Yoshino cherry tree, it's called Someiyoshino.

If you will come to Japan in Spring, please enjoy Someiyoshino.
ソメイヨシノ

多くの日本人は桜、特にソメイヨシノが好きです。

ソメイヨシノは一斉に咲き、一斉に散るので、儚く美しいからです。

日本の桜の約8割がソメイヨシノとも言われています。

しかし、実はソメイヨシノはオオシマザクラとエドヒガンの交配種で、人工的に作られた桜です。

そして、染井村で生まれ吉野桜として売られたことから、ソメイヨシノと呼ばれています。

もし春に日本に来ましたら、ぜひソメイヨシノを見てください。

    We don't generally say "if you will do this". We say "if you __" even when it's future.
