    The apple trees are finally blossoming and starting to blossom. I have 3, the 4th didn't make it and was removed 2 years ago. When we first build the house they would all bloom at the same time but over the years they started to bloom one at a time. It's still pretty but it was so nice when they all bloomed together. The ornamental pear is on the right.

    And here's a friend I found on the ornamental pear tree.

    They're lovely trees! When they bloom at different times, at least you'll get to enjoy apple blossoms longer. :D Our two are also blooming at different times, and the earliest bloomer's fruit is ripe fairly early.

    I love to see blossom on fruit trees. :stew2: I have pear, apple and cherry trees in full bloom at the moment so I'm hoping for good crops from them this year.
