Ruusumanteli









Last fall I gave my husband an almond tree for his birthday. This week we have been admiring it's first bloom. Another dose of pink for all of us!

Wow, I have never heard of anyone growing an almond tree! What lovely, intricate blossoms!

Actually, I don't think it will ever produce almonds. The name on its label was almond tree, but google tells me "prunus triloba" is translated flowering almond. Whatever. It certainly is beautiful!
