Spring blossom

A walk in the Royal Botanic Garden this morning, and if I've matched my notes of plant names to pictures correctly, at the top is Prunus avium (see A. E. Housman), below it Magnolia denudata, and then Malus x robusta 'Red Siberian'.

Beautiful!
Haven't seen any proper countryside today, and would have loved to wander somewhere Nature-esque...

Spent the afternoon wandering around a spectacular garden too where there were lots of blue flowers (re: earlier post) and white, yellow, red, pink and black tulips (plus every colour in between). But your white blossoms seem much more spring like! You have captured nature as she meant to sparkle!

Breathtakingly beautiful, particularly because outside my window today I see a London that's very very grey.
