Hirosaki city in Aomori Prefecture is one of the most famous places in Japan for enjoying cherry blossoms toward end of April every year.

They have a specialists’group named “Team Sakuramori” there that is assigned to take care of cherry trees on a year-round basis. (‘Sakura’ means ‘cherry’ and ‘mori’ means ‘guardian’ in Japanese.)

People in Aomori have a bit advantage in growing cherry tree. While as an industry Aomori is the biggest producer of apple in Japan, botanically both apple and cherry belong to the same family of “rose”.

As all three members of the team are qualified tree doctors, they thought of applying the know-how of growing apples to cherry trees and has succeeded in keeping the trees free from disease, pruning the right branches and extending their lives.

The video introduces their efforts to ensure better treatment for Hirosaki’s cherry blossoms.
