CHEERY CHERRY BLOSSOM

There's a spectacular signt to see right now at Woolmers near Longford - the cherry blossom is out! Every bit as wonderful as those emotive pictures we see of Japanese gardens at cherry blossom time, and this is on our own doorstep.

There's a long row of Prunus 'Mount Fuji' trees which have now reached their full six meters high maturity and they present a truly delightful vista. The flowers are semi-double, pale pink and have a lovely fragrance.

Visit Woolmers purely and simply to take in this aromatic, sadly all too short-lived sight, but of course there ism much, much more to see and do while you're there.

The cherry blossom is a cheerful signal that spring has truly arrived and we can look forward to warmer things to come!
