peach blossom

Pink fruit-tree flower

Peach blossom is the flower of the peach tree, appearing in early spring before the fruit develops.

The delicate pink blooms make peach blossoms symbols of renewal and romance, especially in East Asian cultures.

As a color term, peach blossom describes a soft pink with warm undertones: peach blossom walls, a peach blossom complexion.
