lucky

A while back I mentioned there was a camellia tree in our front garden. During winter it had lost many leaves and looked very sad and dried. As the days have became warmer I could see the flower buds growing but I did not know what colours they were going to be. These beauties are all from the same tree. Someone very clever has grafted these ones together so it produces 3 different coloured flowers. I love the shape too!! There are so many flowers out at the moment and cherry blossom is almost at its peak. Walking is a pleasure when the sun is out and the breeze is blowing. People are out and about and coming out of hibernation, picnics, coffee, walking under the cherry blossom trees and taking photos with their mobile phones. Spring is so beautiful in Japan.
