NOW IN BLOOM: Double Blossom Pink Cherry Trees, Violets in Central Park

it would be beautiful here in Kentucky if it weren't so rainy and dreary here today. When the sun is out it is stunningly beautiful.

NOW IN BLOOM: Double Blossom Pink Cherry Trees, Violets in Central Park

It has chilled down to 47 degrees today in the city. The cool would let the blooms last longer. Yet a blowsy wind and rain could knock them down; downed blossoms in the mud.

Let us hope the blooms survive and the weather is not too harsh and the sun comes out...

CLINGING FOR DEAR LIFE: Double Blossom Pink Cherry Trees in Central Park

I went to visit the pink double blossom cherries today to check on their condition and was amazed that so far--

they are clinging valiantly to the trees!

Hardly a noble bloom is to be found upon the ground, though there are many puddles.

The westerly side of the trees on the slope has turned into something of a pond which some of the trees overhang, and there were several nodescript birdies there munching up dislocated worms and other displaced creepy crawlies.

The skies cleared and became sunny this afternoon, yet more cloudy weather lies ahead.

Our cherries are not out of danger yet...

CLINGING FOR DEAR LIFE: Double Blossom Pink Cherry Trees in Central Park

Jane2, I have been to BBG once, lovely.

Liked the incredible Chinese art in the Brooklyn Museum there as well. I've seen a lot of Asian art, but their collection is stunning. Egyptian, too.

I haven't been up to the big Botannical garden in the Bronx, though, and would like to. I have seen the Zoo beside it.

Incidentally, the double ruffle pink cherry blossoms on these trees in Central Park are more lovely than the ones in my icon. The icon is more in points but the Central Park pink cherries by the Reservoir are true ruffles on each bloom and being underneath whole trees puffed with them takes your breath away.

CLINGING FOR DEAR LIFE: Double Blossom Pink Cherry Trees in Central Park

The pink double ruffle cherry trees of which I rave ring the Reservoir which is located in the center of Central Park.

However, on the West Side of the Reservoir, there are a lot of them for a long stretch which form an arbor walkway with a path in their midst such that you can walk beneath their elegantly arching overhead branches...

Please don't eat the daisies.

NOW IN BLOOM: Wild White Roses in Central Park

NOW IN BLOOM:  Wild White Roses in Central Park

Wild roses, memories of the New England seashore in summer.

At the middle of the foot of Central Park you can find white wild rosebushes in bloom.

A heavenly rose scent, soft fragile petals...

NOW IN BLOOM: Pink Wild Roses in Central Park

Toward the south side and middle of Shakespeare's Garden (which is in the middle between the Swedish Marionette Cottage, Belvedere Castle and the Delacorte Theater) you can find pink wild rosebushes in bloom. There are other colonial-style older small white rosebushess all around the garden as well, though they lack the sweet scent of the wild ones...
