MLK Elementary School, 466 Rockland Street, Lancaster PA<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

This tree, next to a school playground along a busy city street, provides \u201can umbrella of flowers every spring,\u201d said art teacher Tiffany Wilson. \u201cIt\u2019s great to see natural beauty in an urban area.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Approximately 70% of the thousands of cherry trees that Japan gave to America in 1912 \u2014 commemorated each spring by the National Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington, D.C. \u2014 were Yoshinos. MLK\u2019s tree, with a stunning spread that\u2019s double its height, might be the Shidare weeping form. \u00a0[Identification not 100%, however.]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This amazing cultivar has been called \u201cthe darling of the flowering tree world\u201d because of its vibrant display of pink-white blossoms and faint almond fragrance in the spring.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
