Blossom

Blossom, blossom and more blossom - seems to be everywhere!

Just loving cruising around on the bicycle at the moment with all the blossom lined streets artfully decorated with - blossom! Lots of that blossom turns into plums which are pretty good as well.

If you have a snap - don't be shy...

And some blossoms perhaps from a fruiting tree. What are the yellow flowers?

Heather - no idea!

I even asked my mum today whom I presume planted them but didn't get an answer - ravages of old age.

The fruit blossom is from a purple leafed plum - cherry sized fruit, quite yum (-:

I had a green leafed plum with cherry sized fruit, purple skins and sweet tasty yellow flesh. The tree died during the drought and only realised when one spring it did not produce leaves. I did not water the trees but relied on the high water table level, not thinking about the water table level dropping during a drought.
