Cherry Blossom Time
Cherry Blossom Time
What a tender feast for the eyes, the white of wild cherry blossom.
They are a cherished source of nectar and pollen for birds and insects. But then so too is the blackthorn blossom now long gone, with their ‘icing sugar ‘ confections of pure white against their black branches – stunning.
These two early flowering trees both provide more food for wildlife later on when the fruits of sloe appear on the blackthorn and the wild cherries in Summer!
