cherry-trees
Pink springtime spectacles
Cherry-trees is the plural of cherry-tree, a tree that produces cherries—small, round stone fruits ranging from sweet to sour.
Cherry trees are also prized for their blossoms, especially in Japan where hanami (flower viewing) celebrates their brief, spectacular bloom each spring.
The cherry-trees along the riverbank were in full flower.
