Norway Maple



One of my favourite trees at this time of year is the Norway Maple. I love the vivid yellow flowers! I took these photos in the Meadows in Edinburgh. Talking of trees, this is what the cherry blossom across the road looks like now, just budding. it's interesting that the cherry trees in Edinburgh are all at different stages, some are in full flower already....

That is such a beautiful tree.
I especially love the first shot with the really fresh green!

There is one down at the edge of our woods. Yes, indeed, they are lovely.

Pretty maple!

Our flowering trees are at all different stages now as well!

The Norway Maple is a beauty ~ especially seeing the fresh green spring leaves. The cherry blossom tree is going to be amazing. It looks to be a bit ahead of mine, but it's been so chilly here that flowers are opening slowly and staying longer...which is OK!
