The Awanui flowering cherry trees are blooming! We planted these two years ago at Struan Farm, on either side of the track that goes from the Homestead through the Cottage paddock to the pond. It's a beautiful lane of trees this year for the first time, really. Makes me glad that I carted buckets of water to them during this past summer's drought. Perhaps this is the thanks that I get, and I'll take it as that.
This was reminding John of his time at the University of Washington, since apparently there are flowering cherry trees around the campus. Some discussion of calling our flowering cherry track "U of W Lane," but don't think that's sticking.
