The nickname for Imazu’s original cherry blossom, which was being collected last November, has been decided!
And the name is…
Imazu Beni Kanzakura（いまづべにかんざくら）
!!!
There were 212 votes in total, with 209 valid votes, and “Imazu Beni Kanzakura” received 83 votes.
It’s apparently still being grown, so it may be a little while before we get to see it, but we’re already looking forward to finding out what kind of blossoms it will produce.
