Pink Tree

There are so many blossoms in the UK at the moment it is absolutely the best time of the year!

Today we went walking and we saw this really wonderful tree with beautiful pink flowers! For me this tree is the best time in spring. Well it'd be nicer if it did not rain today, but you cannot have it all!
This beautiful tree is a weeping Japanese cherry tree whose main use is ornamental.

This is really good inspiration for my cherry tree stencil for my wardrobe!

Bluebells


Late April, early May is the best part of the year in the North of England as this is the time the bluebells come out. A bluebell or Hyacinthoides non-scripta is particularly associated with ancient woodland where it may dominate the understorey to produce carpets of violet–blue flowers in "bluebell woods". We went for a walk the other day hoping to get a glimpse of this wonderful plant and here's some nice photos!

I hope you enjoy them until next year!
