八重桜(ヤエザクラ) yaezakura(double cherry blossoms)

　八重桜は一つのサクラの品種ではなく、花弁が幾重にも重なる品種の総称です。開花の期間はここ関東では、4月上旬から下旬とsomei-yoshinoに比べると長いです。花弁が多く花は大きめなので、ふくよかな感じがします。

　Yaezakura refers to a group of cherry blossom varieties that have multiple layers of petals, not just one specific variety. In the Kanto region, the blooming period is longer than that of Somei Yoshino (cherry trees), lasting from early to late April. Because the flowers have many petals and are relatively large, they have a plump appearance.
