Cherry blossom is three weeks of it. Flip through the other forty-nine — and watch what's in bloom move up and down the country.
The calendar is the way in. Underneath it sits the ordinary thing — search, filter by month or flower, and open any of the 412 spots.
This site is run as a personal project. It is deliberately built to collect as little as possible, and the short version is this: it sets no cookies, stores nothing in your browser, and runs no analytics or advertising trackers.
Nothing. There is no account to create, no cookie banner because there are no cookies, and no analytics script. Your reading is not recorded or profiled.
Two services necessarily receive a request from your browser, which means each can see your IP address, roughly where you are and which page you asked for:
Typefaces are served from this site rather than from Google Fonts, so loading a page sends no request to Google.
The seasonal sign-up is not connected to a mailing-list provider yet, so an address typed into it is not sent or stored anywhere. If that changes, this page will say which provider receives it before the form starts working.
The site currently carries no advertising. If advertising is introduced, Google and its partners may set cookies or read device identifiers to serve and measure ads, and this page will be updated to say so before any ad is shown. You can review and change your choices at Google My Ad Center and read how Google uses data at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Because nothing is stored, there is no profile to download or erase. For any question about this policy, write to hello@bloomsofjapan.com.
