It is just too exciting at the moment.
I am not sure I have ever seen the quince brothers as smothered in blossom as they are this year. They really do look amazing.
I love how quince blossom is flushed with pink. It is so delightfully pretty.
and as each of the blossoms starts to die back....
... I start to look for quincelets and pre-quincelets. I look for the signs that the fruit is starting to form. I wonder if it will set, I wonder if it will become fruit. I stop and pause, I take a step back and consider all the blossom on the trees. Surely this year will see more fruits, surely.
Time will tell (and don't call me Shirley....)*
