apple blossoms
Pink-white tree blooms
Apple blossoms are the flowers of apple trees, appearing in spring before the fruit develops.
They're typically white or pink with five petals, growing in clusters.
The phrase often evokes spring, renewal, or pastoral beauty: The orchard was covered in apple blossoms.
Apple blossom is the state flower of Arkansas and Michigan.
