Bumble bee foraging on plum blossom… wish I knew what kind of bumble, but I don’t have my Bumble Bees of North America with me!

Very tiny dark metallic blue-green bee hanging out looking skyward on a plum blossom that’s lost its petals

Two ladybugs in love 🐞❤️🐞

Bumble bee foraging on plum blossom… wish I knew what kind of bumble, but I don’t have my Bumble Bees of North America with me!

Orchard trees (cherry, plum, apple, pear…) are excellent early spring food sources for pollinators. A sprinkling of life in our plum tree a few weeks ago 🐝💛🌸 #bees #pollinators #ladybugs #plumblossoms

Here in the #Tokyo area, #CherryBlossom season is over, but there are still some #PlumBlossoms in bloom. The #flowers are more complex the the cherry and a deeper pink. #umemi #Om1 #OMSolutions #LuminarNeo

Plum trees are like peacocks; not native to here. One, gorgeous, solo plum tree has been growing across the street for years. It never produces fruit in its celibate existence, but it blooms beautifully, for a mate it will never meet.

At Kairakuen,
plum blossoms quietly color the air.
Soft fragrance, gentle light—

plum blossoms open beneath a clear blue sky.
White and pink against the bright air—

A close up of a tree in bloom. Are they cherry blossoms or plum blossoms? Good question.

Good morning...
The same plum tree as yesterday but... wait? Are these plum blossoms or cherry blossoms? Yesterday, I swore they were plum blossoms (although they're more of a February thing, but you know nowadays, nature doesn't know when it should do what […]

Branches of a plum tree in full bloom with a late afternoon blue sky in the background.

Cherry blossoms, some are already fading from a very small cherry tree.

The trees in my park have a message for you: Spring is coming!!!!

Picture one: the plum tree, the usual harbinger of Spring, is in full bloom.
Picture two: this young cherry tree may be tiny (less than 1m50 high) but it wants to leave its mark and be the first […]

These flowers will fall, but this plum tree will always be here.

A white glazed clay teacup embellished with the outline of a leaf in blue, filled with reddish tea, rests on a tan and green woven mat. In the background is a succulent growing in a square planter and a celadon vase of pink flowering plum blossoms. Through the window are the blurry branches of a hemlock tree, and a glowing salt lamp in the center far right sits on the window sill.

Plum Blossoms of Kairakuen and the Blue Sky

At Kairakuen in Mito,
plum blossoms open softly beneath the blue sky.
White and pink petals in the clear air—
a quiet sign that spring is arriving.

#PlumBlossoms

Last Sunday, my family and I visited the Tsukigase Plum Grove in Nara Prefecture. The weather was perfect for spring, with temperatures reaching a pleasant 17 degrees Celsius. We weren’t the only ones captivated by the enchanting fragrance of the plum blossoms. The grove was bustling with people, creating an unforgettable experience. Tsukigase Plum Grove, located along the Nabari River in Nara Prefecture, is a picturesque spot known for its beautiful plum blossoms.

A close-up of plum blossoms in backlight. Only the two flowers in the center are in bloom, with the petals filtering through the soft sunlight and the stamens clearly visible. The branches stretching from the bottom right to the top left are silhouetted, and within the silhouettes of these branches you can see the many pale pink buds.

These are plum blossoms in my garden. After a long-awaited rainfall in Tokyo, the season suddenly changed to spring.

In a quiet corner of Kyotanabe, a white plum tree blooms before spring dares to speak. Petals like soft snow rest on dark, patient branches, while the old village hut keeps its silence. Winter has not quite left— but hope has already arrived.
