Berkeley Daily Photo: Cherry blossoms in bloom

Friday, February 9, 2007

These early bloomers burst into color around the first week of February and last for about a month. If only they would stay longer.

Kim said...: Hi Allison,
Every February I would wait for those first bursts of plum blossoms. They are like pink popcorn popping out on all the branches, and have a spicy fragrance as one walks down the street. Your gorgeous photo is of an ornamental plum tree, rather than cherry.

That's too funny that you and Felicia have switched cities!
