Japanese plums are one of the most charming early signs of spring .
Ume (梅), or the beautiful, often underappreciated early symbols of the Japanese spring: plum blossoms.
From February to the end of March, you’ll find them blooming in private yards, parks, temples, shrines and gardens granting a decidedly festive tone to the otherwise dull days of winter. Before the sakura starts blooming and the hanami parties begin, take a moment to enjoy the lovely ume sights.

「日本人が古来から最も親しみ愛してきた花は、やはり梅であろう。早春の寒気のなかで咲く花は、奥ゆかしい美しさに満ちており、私もこよなく愛する。小さな庭で、まばらな梅の影が斜めに突き出て、水の流れは清く浅い。いずこからともなく梅の花の香は漂って来て｡」
