Cherry Blossoms in October? A Few Flowers Bloom in Ueno Park
Overview
In October, a few cherry blossoms were spotted blooming in Ueno Park.
Many people think of cherry blossoms as a spring flower. Yet here they are in Ueno Park, just as autumn deepens. Only a few flowers are reportedly in bloom, so this is not a scene of trees covered in blossoms. Even so, out-of-season cherry blossoms are likely to bring a small surprise to anyone who spots them.
What has been confirmed so far is just "a few" flowers. Details such as whether more will bloom or which trees they are on are not yet known. When visiting Ueno Park, you might want to glance up at the branch tips as well as taking in the fallen leaves and the trees around you. On an autumn stroll through the park, you may come across an unexpected bloom.
