Crabapple Flowers

Post by kcpoole »

Was out yesterday morning hand watering those trees that are not covered by Sprayers, spotted this little Crabapple in flower.
the water droplets hanging in the sun looked especially pretty :D :)

I took a few macro shots to capture the moment.

Enjoy them all as I cannot pick my favourite ones
ps the tree itself is not really worth posting itself,

if you have any flower photos of your own then please feel free to add them as we are coming in to spring now.

Very pretty ken, any chance of posting trees up aswell. :fc: Don't have any flowering bonsai trees at the moment and haven't really seen them, would be great to see it now and then in a month or so when it's fully blossomed.
Thanks
