Cherry blossoms are native to the temperate zone around the Himalayas in the northern hemisphere and grow all over the world, mainly in Japan. Each branch has 3 to 5 flowers, which are umbrella-shaped, with notches at the top of petals, mostly white and pink. Flowers often bloom in March with or after leaves. With the change of seasons, cherry blossoms are fragrant and gorgeous, and are often used for garden viewing. Cherry blossoms can be divided into single petals and compound petals. A single petal can blossom and bear fruit, and most of the compound petals do not bear fruit.
