March 29, 2024. We have to catch up here – everything is blooming at once. Here are some single pink flowers, all pretty rare in this area.

Shosar’ in Richmond. We only know of these in two Richmond locations and one in Burnaby.

‘Star Cherry’ in Vanier Park near the Planetarium in Vancouver. We have five locations for these on our map.

‘Afterglow’ in the Kensington-Cedar Cottage neighbourhood. We knew nothing about this cultivar, but once we saw a street block of them and learned what they were, scouts found 10 more locations.

‘Choshu-hizakura’ in the Arbutus Ridge neighborhood. There were three locations, but a group in a park were removed for some park renovation that made us very unhappy.
