I wonder if someone could post when the blossoms are out. I've heard about how beautiful they are and would like to see them this year. 2023.

The Almond trees are just starting to blossom, some in full blossom but many just starting. I think the ones just coming into flower must be the pink as I haven’t seen any sweet almonds yet. I hope this wind stops otherwise the blossom won’t get fertilised and the almond crop will be low as no bees.

Thank you very much for your reply.

Like you I like to see the blossom it is an indication Spring is on its way, a bit like snowdrops in the U.K.
