English: On April 9, Japanese embassy officials arrive at National Plant Germplasm Quarantine Center in Beltsville, MD, to wrap the trees in red cloth a symbol of good luck and good fortune in preparation for the formal gifting ceremony.

APHIS does not allow the importation of cherry trees due to the risk of plant diseases and plant pests. However, APHIS made it a priority to allow the safe importation of these trees under controlled conditions due to the historical significance of this diplomatic gift. (The original cherry trees given by Japan led to the passage of the Plant Quarantine Act of 1912, the first national legislation regulating the movement of plants to protect agriculture and natural resources.)
