It is a typical spring flower in Japan. Starting with the jugatsu-zakura in the fall, there are various types of cherry blossoms, including the kanzakura, keio-zakura, higan-zakura, and yae-zakura. Among them, the Keio-zakura is a representative species of cherry tree that is shipped in winter. It is shipped from January to March, bringing early tidings of spring during the cold season.
family of flowering plants, incl. the koyamakiSciadopitys verticillata
It is a branch of this indigenous species. It is one of the three most popular garden trees in the world with its beautifully shaped and attractive linear leaves. It is the religious flower of the Shingon sect based in Koyasan, and in the Kansai region, it is a branch that is in great demand as a Buddhist flower and an offering flower. It is also becoming increasingly popular as a floral material because it lasts long and can be enjoyed for a long period of time. The main shipping season is from July to August, but shipments are also possible throughout the year.
Ericaceae Asebi Pieris japonica
Nishiyoshino asebi is characterized by its small, glossy, and voluminous leaves, making it an excellent supporting plant that can easily be combined with any floral material. It is a popular green in recent years because it can be shipped year-round and lasts for a long time. We collect and ship asebi that grows wild in mountain forests. Because it grows in the shade, it matures slowly, but you can enjoy its dark green, glossy leaves for a long time.
Rosaceae (peach family of plants) Prunus persica
The representative species is the double-flowered “Yaguchi peach,” but in recent years the single-flowered “Sakura peach” has been gaining popularity. Selected flowering branches are shipped from January to March for the Peach Festival.
Cornaceae (dogwood family of plants) Cornus officinails
This bright yellow flower material sprouts in greenhouses during the cold season and is shipped from January to March. It was once cultivated as a medicinal herb. The small, bright yellow flowers that color early spring are impressive, and you can enjoy the “twice-blooming” effect, in which the flower blooms once and then blooms again.
