Cherry Blossom 桃花 (1mH) (China)

Cherry Blossom (Prunus serrulata) ✨ A Symbol of New Beginnings and Prosperity

Celebrate Chinese New Year with the enchanting beauty of cherry blossoms, known as 樱花 (yīng huā) in Mandarin. In Chinese culture, these delicate pink blooms represent renewal, hope, and the promising energy of spring. Their brief but spectacular flowering period reminds us to cherish life’s precious moments and embrace new beginnings – making them a meaningful addition to your Chinese New Year celebrations.

To help your cherry blossom tree thrive:

Temperature & Location:

• Place in a bright spot with morning sun and afternoon shade
• Maintain good air circulation
• Best kept outdoors in a partially shaded area or on a well-ventilated balcony

Watering & Humidity:

• Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry
• Mist leaves daily to maintain humidity
• Use a humidity tray filled with pebbles and water

Soil & Fertilizer:

• Plant in well-draining, slightly acidic soil
• Add organic matter for better moisture retention
• Feed with balanced fertilizer monthly during growing season

Special Care Notes: Your cherry blossom will naturally shed leaves and enter a brief dormant period. This is normal and essential for healthy flowering. Expect flowering once or twice a year with proper care, typically lasting 1-2 weeks.

Bring home the beauty of cherry blossoms and start your New Year with the promise of renewal and growth. 🌸
