Tranquil time out #41

A fairly early flowering. Well, at least it is based on the belief of somebody who knows bugger all about botany.

Japanese plum blossom

And it’s plum, presumably.

    Yes, it’s plum, and yes, it’s early. 🙂
    I think last year this kind of progress could be seen at least two or three weeks later.

    Lovely shot, sir. Yes, it’s ume [plum]. I had a vigorous debate going on over one of my shots of plum blossom, which I shot recently in Tokyo. It was decided by all that plum is what is going on right now…..
