In Edo period, the word 'hanami' had implied seeing ume blossoms. And ume trees have their fruits on them, therefore, sumrais had loved ume trees to plant in their residences since they could be their food when they would have battles. Moreover, accordking to 'Danchotei Nichijo' the diary of Kafu Nagai, a famous writer early Showa Era, he had walked around Ichikawa city and others to search for ume blossoms to search for the spring. He loves ume more than sakura blossoms.
Umes start blooming little by little from the middle of winter, so people could know that spring is coming. Ume blossoms blooming under the blue sky are politely beautiful. Why don't you visit them to see ume blossoms with heavy clothes on?
