Cherry Blossom Trees Animal Crossing New Horizons is a special pink tree that appears for one month a year. Luckily, you don't have to do anything extra to get them.

Cherry blossoms in the real world bloom around April. Like in New Leaf, your hardwood trees' leaves will turn pink this time in Animal Crossing New Horizons as well. This is only if you're in the northern hemisphere, that is. It's unconfirmed which month they'll appear in the southern hemisphere, though if it happens in the middle month of spring we can expect them in October.
The first seasonal event for #AnimalCrossing: New Horizons is on its way! From 4/1 – 4/12, participate in Bunny Day to find eggs hidden by Zipper and craft special items. Another free update to the game hits in late April, which adds the Earth Day event.

While it may be tempting to chop down all of the non-fruit trees for lumber, I recommend having a few of them around. Not only do you get the beautiful cherry blossoms in April, you also can shake them down for bugs like bagworms and wasps.
If you've cut them all down for whatever reason, you can buy saplings from Nook's Cranny and replant them.
