Marketing Verbiage

Sakura stands for a positive symbol in the Asian region, especially to Japanese people. It symbolizes beauty and the beginning of spring. Cherry blossoms are indigenous to many East Asian states and symbolize the transience of life because of their short blooming times. More than 200 cultivars can be found only in Japan. In China, cherry blossom is also a symbol for feminine beauty. It furthermore represents the feminine principle and love.
