The cherry blossom forecast for 2019 here in Japan for Kyushu, Shikoku, and Tokai regions show the usual expected dates, while sakura are expected to bloom earlier as well as much later in other regions. Sakura will bloom by March 22 in Fukuoka while the rest of Japan will follow. In general, the cherry blossoms in the lower parts of Japan from Kyushu to Kanto regions are expected to bloom not later than the end of March. After they begin to bloom, these spectacular flowers usually take around a week up to 10 days before they are in full bloom. The full bloom of the sakura also signals the start of a new school year for students and fiscal year for businesses.
