    @pitter-patter Interesting to see your apple blossom has petals that are all dark pink. All the varieties that we have in our orchard are white with a flush of pink. Do you know the variety of yours?

    @On the Levels It’s a crab apple, I’m afraid. Keeps its burgundy foliage throughout the year and the stems and apples are really dark as well. Malus Toringo Aros

                Absolutely stunning, @Alan Clark
                I wanted to put a double like, but the system doesn't allow for that.

                      Nice.

                      Hate to tell you @amancalledgeorge it's absolutely ****ing it down in North Wales at the moment (which is why I'm sitting inside typing instead of outside walking!)
