Tree Following - guest larch
Many readers of this blog will know I'm following a larch tree in Colinton Dell, along the Water of Leith for Tree Following. At the weekend we visited Dalkeith Country Park and I took photos of a larch tree there, which had a lot more flowers easily photographable than the tree I'm following.
Even though the flowers have lost their colour they're still beautiful. You can see the flowers at their most colourful in this post.

ReplyDeleteI love this larch tree. What are those things on it? They look similar to pine cones!
ReplyDeleteHi Optimistic - they're the flowers
ReplyDeleteThey are lovely trees and flowers.. Beautiful photos. Thanks for sharing more of the Larch tree.
ReplyDeleteVery nice. I cannot believe it is spring already. The tree s doing really well.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful lush green shots.
ReplyDelete...those flowers resemble the pine cones seen here in North America.
ReplyDeleteHad i not read what you said i would think they were some kind of orchids growing on the trees
ReplyDeleteThe blooms are lovely, cone like
Much love...
They look like pinecones, how pretty!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beauty! Here in the north, our larches still look like dead twigs.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful tree Juliet.... Love reading the tree posts.... Michelle
ReplyDeleteGreat to find all your tree posts listed in one place on L&L! Isn't it strange to think of cones as flowers?
ReplyDeleteHi Caroline, I'm fascinated by watching the process of flower becoming cone....
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty colours! I mistook flowers on a Christmas Tree kept in a pot for growing cones once. Interesting how similar they are.
