Cherry Blossom

This cherry blossom, in bloom now, is high up in the trees that were part of a Council Tree Nursery over 15 years ago.  It is not the native wild cherry but a Japanese ornamental.  These trees were originally destined for street planting  or a park somewhere but got left behind along with several London Planes, Tree Cotoneasters, Apples, Labnurnums, Silver Maples, Pride of India Trees, Hornbeams and Roses.

You can walk through this part of the former tree nursery but you can also see the cherry blossom from the viewpoint at the top of the hill.
