Prunus yedoensis"Awanui."
Photos taken very late afternoon.
Also looking amazing is the Golden Elm tree.
Ulmus Glabra lutescens.
A very interesting flower.
( maybe the lime bits are bracts not petals )
I used magnification to look right into it's centre. The little maroon tip on each petal is hairy and has nectar.
I picked some and am watching it on the kitchen window sill.
I love the colour!
The property is humming with busy bees delighted with the variety of flowers available.

Gorgeous trees. NZ is so lovely in Spring :)
Spring certainly is a lovely time of the year. The blue skies make everything look so bright. I love golden elms, their colours really stand out in each season.
I keep forgetting that when we're in Orange you're in Pink and delicious Spring Green!
