May 30, 2011: I think it`s time to post not only macro-micro views, but also something large for a change. We already have some large beauties after all these years.

Previously, our largest garden tree was something that was sold to us as an “apricot”. In fact it turned out to be a lazy sort of small plums, but in blossom it was beautiful. Unfortunately, last year our “apricocot” got ill with coccomyces blight and died despite all Mom`s phytosanitary efforts. Thus, now this cherry-tree became the most beautiful one in the garden. By the way, this cherry does not catch coccomyces. Very good version.2011-06-garden
