Flowering Cherry - York Cenmetry


A warm sunny afternoon, ornamental cherries flowering, it gives the feeling that spring is just around the corner. You can be certain though that if I am showing photos of cherry trees in blossom that we will be having some more snow before too long. Last year I when I showed cherry trees there was snow very quickly folowed.


This was the wintery scene at the appropriately named Ice House by Monk Bar on 23 March last year when we woke to a blanket of snow. This scene always reminds me of a Christmas pudding topped with a sprinkling of icing sugar, all that is missing is the sprig of holly!
