| About this scrapbook page: |
|
Branch Brook Park in Newark, New Jersey is the oldest county park in the United States and is home the nation's' largest collection of cherry blossom trees, with about 4,300. Japan gave 3,020 cherry blossom trees as a gift to the United States in 1912 to celebrate the nations' then-growing friendship, replacing an earlier gift of 2000 trees which had to be destroyed due to disease in 1910. These trees were planted in Sakura Park in Manhattan and line the shore of the Tidal Basin in Washington, D.C.

Not only are your scraps beautiful, but I always enjoy reading the information you provide with each one! Thanks for sharing...I've never seen the cherry trees in Washington, DC, but I've got six pretty ones in my yard.
