Contrasts. Prunus 'Okame', Taiwan Cherry, Stepkensbeek, Venlo, The Netherlands
The early spring day brings contrasts. The blue sky and the deep pink blossoms of the Taiwan Cherry (thank you Wendy Cutler, see comment below). The 'Okame' is for the Japanese goddess of good fortune and mirth. It's a hybrid that was developed in 1940. This tree is in the yard of a farm along one of my favorite jaunts crossing the Stepkensbeek between Venlo and Velden.
