Much like bellis perennis, one can never have enough Japanese cherry trees. Or Japanese cherry tree blossoms.

there's a Japanese cherry tree here too tho <3

it was gifted to an important person in my hometown for their discoveries and work in chemistry, as an exchange for a business deal. it's pretty old nowadays but we all say it's officially spring only after this tree has bloomed.

Prunus serrulata (Japanese flowering cherry)

The term 'Japanese flowering cherry' is complicated. Most of the flowering cherry trees you see are complex cultivars and they don't produce edible fruit because they have been selected, purely on the basis of their 'prettiness', for hundreds of years. On Saturday, I went to the Sakura Days Festival at the Van Dusen Botanical Garden in Vancouver but it was quite crowded and there were simply not enough cherry trees for my liking. However, I found this beautiful, highly-doubled specimen a few blocks away and I was delighted.

Earlier this spring Chris was able to witness the beautiful weeping cherry tree in bloom at the Portland Japanese Garden 🌸. Morning sunlight spilled across the scene bathing the tree in a warm glow.

Legends and myths about trees

Legendary tree deities (12)

Konohananosakuya-bime - Goddess of the cherry tree in Japanese mythology

Konohananosakuya-bime (Ref) is worshipped as the deity of Mt Fuji and her beauty as a symbol of cherry blossom.

Daughter of Oyamatsumi-no-kami, a mountain deity; also wife of Ninigi-no-mikoto (Ref2), and mother to the quarreling deities Hoderi and Hoori (Ref3).  She had an elder sister named Ishinaga-hime.

Their father, Oyamatsumi, wanted both her and her elder sister to be Ninigi-no-mikoto's wives, but Ninigi married only Kihananosakuya-bime. Because the younger sister was beautiful, but the elder sister was ugly, she was sent back to her father.

According to Oyamatsumi, the younger sister was supposed to bring prosperity like cherry blossoms to the heavenly grandson, while the elder sister was supposed to bring eternal life like a rock. However, Ninigi-no-mikoto's rejection of Ishinaga-hime shortened the Emperor's life span and he soon became just like an ordinary human being.

Konohananosakuya-bime was conceived soon after her marriage, leading Ninigi-no-mikoto to suspect that she was carrying the child of the earthly deity. So she set fire to the maternity house she was in and gave birth safely, believing if a child of Ninigi as the heavenly deity would be born no matter what. The three brothers born at this time were Hoderi-no-mikoto, Hosseri-no-mikoto and Hoori-no-mikoto.

木にまつわる伝説・神話

伝説の樹木の神々 (12)

木花咲耶姫 (ｺﾉﾊﾅﾉｻｸﾔﾋﾞﾒ) 〜日本神話に登場する桜の女神

木花咲耶姫 (ｺﾉﾊﾅﾉｻｸﾔﾋﾞﾒ: 参照)は富士山の神、またその美貌は桜の象徴として信仰されている。

山の神である大山津見神の娘で、瓊瓊杵尊 (ﾆﾆｷﾞﾉﾐｺﾄ: 参照2)の妻でもあり、喧嘩の絶えない火照命(ﾎﾃﾞﾘﾉﾐｺﾄ) と火遠理命 (ﾎｵﾘﾉﾐｺﾄ: 参照3) の母である。石長比売 (ｲﾜﾅｶﾞﾋﾒ)という姉がいる。

父の大山津見神は姉と一緒にニニギノミコトの妻にさせたいと思っていたが、ニニギは妹だけと結婚した。なぜなら妹は美人だったが、姉は醜かったことから父の元に送り返された。

父の大山津見神曰く、妹は天孫に桜の花が咲くような繁栄を、姉は岩のような永遠の命をもたらすはずだった。だが、ニニギがイワナガヒメを拒絶したことで天皇の寿命は短くなり、やがて普通の人間と同じになってしまう。

コノハナﾉサクヤビメは結婚後すぐに懐妊したためにニニギから国津神の子を身ごもったんだろうと疑われ、天津神であるニニギの子なら何があっても産まれるはず、と自分の居る産屋に火をつけて無事に出産した。この時に産まれたのが、火照命、火須勢理命(ﾎｽｾﾘﾉﾐｺﾄ)、火遠命の三柱である。
