Though the official start of spring, Setsubun, was a few weeks ago, for me the sign that spring is here is the arrival of the plum blossoms.
Like the Chinese, I find the plum blossom more enchanting and exciting than the cherry blossom.
We have quite a few plum trees in the area...and at least they grow fruit, which is more than can be said for the cherry blossom.
