Best Answer

Cherry blossoms are significant in Japan because they symbolize spring and newness. Japan has many cherry blossom trees that bloom as soon as spring comes around, and many celebrate this by going to "hanami," which is basically a picnic under the trees with friends and family. Spring is also the time when children begin a new school year, and many associate cherry blossoms with a new year of school.

In Japan, the cherry blossom is symbolic of the transient nature of life. Because of their short blooming nature they represent the fact that life is short and time is fleeting.
