Blooming almond tree In my area, the great majority of the landscape is dark green, so it's a real treat to witness white and pink areas appearing everywhere when the almond trees start blooming.

Blooming almond tree

In my area, the great majority of the landscape is dark green, so it's a real treat to witness white and pink areas appearing everywhere when the almond trees start blooming.

  1. I wonder if the tree is fooled into thinking it's spring already. Happens sometimes on warm winter days. Posted 3 years ago
    1. It hasn't rained much and it's been a sunny winter over here so that's a good guess. Posted 3 years ago

The almond is a species of tree native to Iran and surrounding countries but widely cultivated elsewhere. The almond is also the name of the edible and widely cultivated seed of this tree. Within the genus ''Prunus'', it is classified with the peach in the subgenus ''Amygdalus'', distinguished from the other subgenera by corrugations on the shell surrounding the seed.
