The cherry blossoms are known for their beauty and historical importance within Asian cultures — particularly when it comes to Japan's respect for Washington as a symbol of friendship between countries. This is why they were originally gifted by Japan back in 1912 during America's early years since becoming an independent nation. Since then, millions have enjoyed them every year as more trees continue being planted near Potomac Park in our nation's capital, making it one of America's oldest living symbols of international friendship.
