cherry blossoms

This is one of my two cherry trees.  I noticed the blossoms opening on Saturday and they are ready for the bees to do their job.  I hope to get a few cherries this year.  The peaches hardly had any blossoms so  the fruits will be missed.

ranunculus

My garden has been quite neglected so I am pleased to see these pink ranunculus making an appearance.  When the plant died down last autumn I did not dig out the bulbs, and fortunately for me make a comeback.

The white variety survived the neglect and I noticed a couple more of the white ones in other parts of the garden.
