The early spring is heralded by the blooming of the red plum blossoms. As mid-March arrives, reports of spring flowers blooming across the country continue, with crimson plum blossoms in full bloom in Andong, North Gyeongsang, indicating the season’s change.
Red plum trees blossom earlier than other plum varieties, enduring winter’s cold and blooming first. When in full bloom, they decorate the branches like pink cotton candy, creating a spectacular view.
As the spring energy becomes full-fledged, different spring flowers like forsythia and cherry blossoms are expected to bloom sequentially. Nature, which had withdrawn during the winter, is awakening, and the whole nation is gradually being colored in spring hues.
