People say that Oshima cherry (Prunus speciosa) blossoms are white while Yoshino cherry (Prunus x yedoensis) blossoms are whitish pink, but these two resemble each other very much when Oshima cherry blossoms turn whitish pink just before falling. I didn't know this last year, so I thought Oshima cherry had white and whitish pink cultivars, but I was wrong. Another difference between the two is that Oshima cherry trees start to produce fresh green leaves at the same time when starting to bloom (while Yoshino produces leaves after the blossoms fall).
