If you happen to find something like this in a grocery store
that deals in Japanese items, that must be salted cherry blossoms.

It is just salted edible flower, but I really like its
color and smell.
I sometimes make a cup of tea with it.
Put one or two Sakura in a cup and pour boiling water
over it - and it's done.
It makes just slightly flavored salty hot water,
but many Japanese people have loved this graceful drink
for long years : )
