Peach Blossoms and Sunshine

Though it’s stormy today, much of the last few weeks has brought enough sunshine and warmth to get my backyard peach tree blooming.  Every year is the same.  The peach tree gets a lot of sunlight and moves toward blooms sooner than most of the plants in the yard.  Even so, things start off slow.

Then one morning I look outside and there are pink flowers on all the branches.  This tree, and its showy pink flowers, are one of the nicest parts of early Spring.

Seen against the vibrant blue sky, the pink is simply splendid, some of Mother Nature’s nicest work.  That’s happy!
