So, I had the crazy notion to go check it out after lunch on Tuesday.
It is about an hour train ride from where we live and only a couple of minutes from the JR Yaho station.
Bummer that these were past their peak, the petals were fluttering to the ground whenever the wind blew.
Apparently there are 350 trees, Ikegami plum garden has 370 trees.
Will check this out again next year, hopefully I'll be able to catch them in full bloom...
It was interesting to check out this part of Tokyo.
I also got my hands on a taiyaki filled with sakura a from Naruto Taiyaki Honpo.
The weather is definitely warming up...have a safe weekend.
