flower viewing
Springtime botanical outing
Flower viewing is the practice of gathering outdoors to appreciate blooming plants, especially cherry blossoms.
The term often translates Japanese *hanami*, where springtime picnics under flowering trees are a cultural tradition: We went flower viewing in the park when the cherry blossoms peaked.
The activity combines nature appreciation with social gathering.
