Thin Black Ink Cherry Blossoms 淡墨櫻花

In the beginning of blooming,the petals of this cherry are white. They change to thin black before falling.

  1. I always like to see the cherry blossom trees in your area. I miss seeing all the pink blossom trees in my old town. There are a few pink and white trees here in the mountains throughout my town, but they used to grace all the streets in my old town and were such a sight. Thank you for sharing your trees with us. They are beautiful, and look like old trees.

  2. Love all cherry blossoms - our neighborhood has many and it looks so lovely as we've had some rain the past couple of days.

  3. I read that the wood from that tree is used to make furniture and that it changes color freshly cut, the heartwood is dull grey/purplish brown. Upon exposure the wood becomes a deeper purple eggplant color. With the passage of time and exposure to UV light, the wood turns dark brown with a hint of purple.
    I ask you: Can you eat your cherries?

    1. Cherry trees can bear very small fruit but it's not sweet.
