People enjoying spring blosssoms

What is most attractive for people in this area of Shinjuku Gardens is that tree which bears flowers of three colours on same trunk; white, pale pink, deep pink. It is a so-called Genpei peach tree and it has most beautiful blossoms. This is a big specimen; in the area where we live there are smaller ones, but also most attractive, they simply force you to stop and have a closer look at the flowers and wonder at the whims of nature.
