Peach blossoms are as beautiful as the fruit they produce and Colorado produces the finest anywhere! Here's to a 2021 bumper crop (barring a late freeze...)

Thank you! Few sights make me happier than seeing fields of of my beloved peaches blooming in spring! It is a crazy thing that they took a desert and turned it into a fruit oasis.

This is a very nice image! The blossoms are beautiful and the row of trees leads the eye right to the mesa in the background. Well done.

Thank you! Palisade is on the west slope of the rockies and tends to be about 5 degrees warmer than Denver. Typically bloom is mid-april. My peach trees at home were about to bloom, but it is now snowing and they will be destroyed given we have 4 straight nights in the 20's this weekend. No peaches again this year... at least it is only a 4 hour drive to Palisade. Last year even they lost 95% of the crop in a record late April deep freeze.
