When I saw it last Wednesday, the buds were still tight and I thought it would be a while longer... It's near Naoshima Dam.Cherry Blossom Labyrinth "Oshima Cherry"However, by Saturday they were in full bloom!! I'm worried they might scatter quickly due to the rain and wind starting Sunday, but please do visit if you come to the island!

Most of the cherry blossoms on the island are already showing their leaves, but it's interesting how the blooming periods vary so much depending on the location and the tree, even on this small island.
