Moreover, its tree posture and shape after flowering are very elegant and beautiful. Its color is very similar to the cute yellow color of the clothes used by nobles at that time. Therefore, this official named it "Imperial Yellow", which means the color of the royal clothes used by nobles. Later, people also called this flower Imperial Yellow Cherry.
