The story behind “Yuka no Sato”

In Yuuka no Sato, there is a deep connection between “kamiyama weeping cherry blossoms” and sudachi cultivation, and the story is interesting.

In fact, in 2008, a person who used to grow sudachi here got three seedlings of weeping cherry trees from the Kamiyama Sakura Society, and that was the beginning of the mountain of cherry blossoms.

In response to this opportunity, a full-fledged effort was made to transform the sudachi field into a mountain of cherry blossoms, and in ten years it has grown splendidly.

“kamiyama weeping cherry blossoms” was certified as a new cultivar by the Japan Flower Association in 2021.

This cherry tree is loved by many people for its beauty and rarity.
