Satsuma-kanzakura

Satsuma-kanzakura is considered a hybrid of Kanhizakura (Cerasus campanulata) and Yamazakura (C. jamasakura) and belong to Kanzakura group. There are several varieties of Kanzakura, but in Tokyo, along with Atamizakura, it is the variety that blooms the earliest, blooming about one week earlier than Kawazuzakura, popular early blooming variety in Tokyo.

Atamizakura

The cherry variety hybred by “Kanzakura” or “Kanhizakura” (C. campanulata) which is local vriety in Taiwn or Okinawa and Yamazakura (C. jamasakura) in Westside Japan and planted in Atami almost 150 years ago. It is well known as one of the earliest blooming variety in Japan and also lasting blooming almost 1 month.In Atami, the Cherry Blossom Festival is held from January onwards, and these beloved cherry trees are planted all over the city, but in Tokyo there are not many opportunities to see them, and they are not as well known as the Kawazu cherry trees.

Kawadusakura

The large, pink Kawazu cherry blossoms are famous not only in Kawazu Town, Shizuoka Prefecture, where they originated, but throughout the Kanto region, where they bloom from early to mid-February, and cherry blossom festivals are held in various places. They are popular because their flowers are larger and fully open than the Kanhi-zakura (C. campanulata), blooming the same time.
