festival of spring #6

Seen in south-east England over Easter – so much blossom lining the suburban streets and the parks alongside the River Thames, from the purest white and the palest of pink to a deep magenta red.

I am going to join in with Dawn’s Festival of Spring which will last for 10 -12 weeks in celebration of this season.

I have lived in the UK for most of my life, but when young I definitely had wanderlust and even ended up living in South Africa for several years which was a wonderful experience. I now look forward to a long and leisurely retirement doing what I like most - gardening, photography, walking and travelling.

    1. Don’t you have them around your area Sue? There seemed to be blossom trees everywhere around Esher and Kingston.

  6. Who doesn’t love blossom? Quite a few good examples around here, but it is very delicate and easily affected by the easterly winds.
    Best wishes, Pete. x

    1. I wondered whether the blossom in Surrey held on longer because it is quite sheltered in the suburbs, they was barely a breeze during my stay, but saying that it has been quiet here too this past month. No complaints from me!

    1. We don’t see much here either in my bit of Cornwall. Though the blackthorn and hawthorn hedges are magnificent.

        1. Sadly that’s not always the case. You must let me know when you come again so that I can book a holiday myself! 😂
