Given that I love this time of year when all the trees are in blossom, I count myself fortunate to live in an area where there are many mature ornamental cherry trees. Their blossom is riotous, extravagant, explosive and wonderful against the very clear blue skies we've been enjoying. (Is the intense blue a positive spin-off from the coronavirus lockdown? Less pollution?)
The tree below isn't in a very scenic spot, slap bang in front of some utilitarian social housing flats but it is beautiful to behold at the moment.
Beautiful - you could be in Japan!
ReplyDeleteOur large park in the city which has a huge grove of cherry trees is closing down to keep people from congregating. The city is going to stream the blossoms on line.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos of blossoms!
