In early March, the blooming cherry blossoms in Wuhan University invite students and teachers alike to stop and enjoy their time with the lovely flowers.

The weather is warming up while the cherry blossoms bloom, and the same goes with the days to come. The sky is light, the cherry blossoms are bright, and people delight in March. The sea of flowers looks like an extraordinary painting, people look pretty like flowers, and the sun shines. With cherry blossoms falling on heads, let’s stay together in deep love.

Cherry blossoms on campus

Prunus introtsa is a hybrid of cerasus campanulata and cherry. It originates from the Iyozu Hikonomikoto Shrine in Japan where the flowering season lasts from late February to early March. This kind of cherry is an early blooming variety with pink flowers that turn pink and white later, and dense flowers. When in full bloom, they have a faint fragrance.

Students are attracted by the marvelous and beautiful blooming scene, stopping to appreciate it in awe. They won’t stop taking photos until they are completely satisfied.

Some immediately contact their families far away through video chat to share this beautiful scenery of white-pink romance. During the sunny days in March, let’s enjoy a romantic cherry blossoms shower together with our friends and families.

Cherry blossoms symbolize love and hope. On the dynamic campus, they also emanate youthful enthusiasm. WHU is known not only for its academic atmosphere but also for its beauty. Each March, the 300-meter Cherry Blossom Avenue in WHU is adorned with snow-white petals, like a sea of fluffy clouds. There is one poem that goes, “Cherry blossoms are in full bloom, but how long would this last? Willows are green and blossoms are pink, while you could not read my mind.” It suits this scene perfectly.
