The cherry tree is one of the trees belonging to the familia Rosaceae, a Prunus genus similar to a plum, peach, or apricot tree, but in general sakura is classified in sakura subgenus. The origin of the word "sakura" is the word "pocket" (Japanese for "blooming") plus a suffix that states the plural "ra". In English, cherry blossoms are called cherry blossoms.

The color of flowers depends on the species, some are white with a little pink, light yellow, pink, light green or bright red.

The flowers are classified into 3 types based on the composition of the crown leaf:

a single flower with a layered crown
double flower with layered crown
double flower
The cherry blossoms once a year, on the island of Honshu, someiyoshino's cherry blossom buds start to look at the end of winter and the flowers bloom in late March to early April when the weather gets warm.

In Japan, the blossom of someiyoshino cherry starts from Okinawa in February, continued on the western island of Honshu, to Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto in late March to early April, then gradually moving northward, ending in Hokkaido in during Golden Week holidays.

Every year the cherry watchers pull out the map of the flower blossom movement of someiyoshino cherry from west to east and then north called sakurazensen. By using the map sakurazensen can be known the location of cherry blossoms that are blooming at a certain time.
