    What with my just having returned from Japan, you would think I'd had enough of cherry blossoms...but no.

    This was beautiful...really a visual and aural treat. Thanks for sharing it with us!

    very cool .... I wanted to ask ... if the frames were taken at such intervals and over 8days? ... was the camerea mounted there for the duration? ... or put back on a mount in the location? .... admire your patience.
  • Brooklyn Botanic Garden 2 years ago
    The camera was mounted there for the duration. I never touched it. It was in a weatherproof box with a plexiglass front.

    It does look like it gets bumped a time or two, however, but with the bustling crowds that was to be expected.

    Thanks for asking!

    watching the filtered light crawl across the ground was really awesome. Like a river of light.

    The cherry blossoms at the Brooklyn Garden are a lot redder than the Yoshino cherry blossoms typically in Washington, DC and in Memphis. Could you specify what variety of cherry trees you have at Brooklyn?

    Hi-

    The variety in the video is Prunus 'Kanzan' but there are a lot of others on display at BBG. See: bbg.org/exp/cherries/guide.html
  • kkfung plus 7 months ago
    Thanks. But what is the botanical name for Yoshino cherry? Could it be simply prunus Yoshino?
