(Dione Japanese Apricot, Japanese Apricot)
The Dione Japanese apricot foretells an impending end to winter by displaying bubblegum pink flowers on barren branches.

(Japanese Apricot, Matsubara Red Japanese Apricot)
The dreariness and chill of midwinter melts with the warm hues of blossoms that grace the branches of the Matusbara Red Japanese apricot. The double (extra petals) flowers are dark red, which for a Japanese apricot, looks more rose-magenta than blood red.
