The cherry blossom

I love to eat cherries so I planted this cherry plant. It is in a pot and it was time for me to fertilize it with my compost and I did it. After a short time, I have seen how it has loaded all its branches with little lilac flowers.

My surprise was very sad when the day after I took the pictures with all its beautiful flowers and buds there was a strong breeze and it rained. When I took my daily walk through the garden the next morning I could see how the plant had lost all its flowers. They were scattered on the ground.

It's been two weeks since that and today again I see the beautiful but small cherry blossoms appearing. They are delicate and very small. I have already eaten the delicious fruits of this plant twice and they are extremely sweet.

I hope that the continuous breezes and storms that have been coming in will not pass for a few days while they develop and go on to form the fruits so that I can taste them again.

I have taken the flowers in a macro so you can see the delicacy of their five petals and their pink color. As soon as the plant is full of fruits I will take new photos of the fruits that I have never been able to take. Of course, it has not given me abundant fruits but it will. See you next time.

This is my entry to the 5.13 Contest: Looking Back Looking Forward.
