An extra post today, simply to showcase some of the blossoms that I hope will lead to a good crop of fruit later in the year...

Enchanting Mark. Love the bumble bee! lol x
ReplyDeleteI've got all those flowering in my garden right now too. I won't get apples this year though. The trees were just planted last year. I haven't seen a lot of bees yet. Nice pics.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, beautiful photos Mark-yet again! Those first two- I can almost imagine for sale on some pretty table mats in an expensive high street store!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos...my apple trees usually bloom about a month from now. With the mild winter and several very warm days, I think they will be early this year.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteMade me go out and give a pep talk to my fruit trees :)

Lovely photos and good to see the bees hard at work!
ReplyDeleteHi...I wanted to ask you on your herb page but there doesnt seem to be a way to comment....did you grow good king henry from seed? I am trying, but perhaps it is too early...please let me know! Thanks...
ReplyDeleteYes, I did grow GKH from seed. I tried to find a ready-grown plant, but I failed, so I bought a pack of seeds. It self-seeds very easily and I'm forever pulling up excess seedlings. Do you want to grow it yourself? If so I could save some seed for you in the Autumn.
ReplyDeleteVery nice pictures of the fruit blooms & nice to see the bees. My fruit trees are well in bloom but my Blueberries are struggling to develop even after being re-planted last year, from pots on my patio to my allotment.
ReplyDeleteI love blossom and your pictures really are stunning.
ReplyDeleteI'm so jealous because I can never capture a visiting bee on my plants...they always seem to tease me by being so busy!
Need a faster shutter speed I think...or maybe I need to move quicker!
Have a great week. ;D
Lovely photos! I find bees very camera shy! They just refuse to let me photograph them so I was impressed with your 2nd to last photo.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pics, can't wait to see the fruits! A.
