April 2, 2017
TOKYO- Cherry blossoms in central Tokyo became the first to reach full bloom in Japan on Sunday, the Japan Meteorological Agency said the same day.
Opening of at least 80 pct of buds on the “Somei-Yoshino” cherry tree under monitoring in Yasukuni Shrine in Chiyoda Ward was confirmed, the agency said.
The tree, which started blooming on March 21 ahead of any other monitored tree in the country, met the full-bloom criterion one day earlier than usual but two days later than the previous year, it said. Jiji Press
