All that seasonal flair

Go out and admire the flowering trees and plants vying for our attention in spring and early summer, says Peter Dowdall.

THERE are certain gardening jobs that need to be done at a specific time and if you don’t get around to them then you miss your chance for this year.

We tend to think only of cherry blossoms when it comes to spring and early summer flowering trees but Apple blossom too is one of the stunning sights. They are particularly breathtaking if we are lucky enough to enjoy some days of bright sunshine with pure blue skies whilst these beauties are in blossom.
