Sakura Flower Extract
The Sakura flower (cherry blossom) belongs to the rose family, Rosaceae, and is a cultural icon in Japan. It even has its own cherry blossom viewing festival known as hanami, the Japanese tradition of welcoming spring and appreciating the transient beauty of nature. People will gather at parks and hold feasts with family and friends under the flowering sakura trees, sometimes until late at night. There are more than 600 species of sakura in Japan. The names of the flowers depend on the number of petals. Those with up to five petals are called hitoe while flowers that have five to ten petals are called hanyae. Those with more than ten petals are called yae.
