I Captured Spring In Japan

I’ve taken a few pictures of the spring of Japan. Spring in Japan begins with blooming of plum trees.

Plum trees? I'm pretty sure Japan is known for its spring cherry blossoms. During my six and a half years in Yokosuka, I remember seeing many cherry blossoms, but no plum blossoms.

They're plums (though technically a relative of the apricot) prunus mume or Ume in Japanese and they are *almost* as popular as Sakura. They bloom earlier than Sakura, tending to begin in February and smell much better imo.
