Blossom around Trecynon near Aberdare Park
March 21, 2008
The lucky people of Trecynon get the full show of early spring blossom from within and without Aberdare Park.The symphony of pink blossom reverberates around Trecynon. At the north end of Cemetery Road, Trecynon this week, opposite the Llwyncelyn Pub, three Japanese Cherry (Prunus serrulata) trees were in full bloom.Here are the photos we caught on March 19th 2008 …
The blossom was particularly short-lived this year. The fickle weather conspired against us.
Last night, the wind blew like a hurricane and today we have had stormy and blustery weather, with hailstones.
Despite the weather, it’s well worth taking a de-tour along Trecynon if you are heading north to Hirwaun from Aberdare. There are other specimens of Japanese Cherry that will flower later, including those above Broniestyn Terrace.
