It’s Cherry Blossom season! 🌸
Flowering cherry trees are in bloom. Here are three varieties worth knowing:
The Kwanzan Cherry puts on one of the boldest spring shows of any flowering tree, with large clusters of deep pink double blooms that look almost like small roses. It has a full, vase-shaped form.
The Snow Fountains Weeping Cherry is more compact shape, with graceful arching branches that drape all the way to the ground under the weight of cascading white blooms.
The fast growing Yoshino Cherry brings a broad, open canopy filled with masses pale pink to nearly white blooms in one spectacular early spring flush.
Beyond their beauty, all 3 of these support spring pollinators. During their short 2 to 3 week bloom window, they can attract hummingbirds, songbirds, butterflies, and bees. 🐝 🦋
In Japanese culture, cherry blossoms are known as sakura, a symbol long associated with spring, renewal, and the fleeting beauty of life.
Maybe that is part of why they still stop us in our tracks. They are beautiful in the moment, and they return each year as a living reminder of love, memory, and connection.

Dusty leaves can’t do their job. 🌱
Dust and grime build up over time and block the sunlight your tree needs. A quick wipe-down makes a real difference. 🧽
Here’s how to do it right:
Dampen a soft cloth with lukewarm water and wipe each leaf individually, top and bottom. For large-leafed trees like Fiddle Leaf Figs, this is especially important since their broad surface area is their main light-collecting tool.
Follow up with a light mist to add a little humidity.💦
Ten minutes, once a month. Your tree will thank you for it.
