Blossom Trails
Before the demise of the British orchard these AA Blossom Trail signs were a familiar sight:
Coach trips were organised so that folk could view the spectacular orchard blossom from mid March to mid May, picnics were packed and a lovely time was had by all. Sadly these events aren't so common now with perhaps the exception of the Vale of Evesham where a 45 mile route is sign posted where people can view cherry, plum, pear and apple blossom. You can find loads of information about the blossom trail by clicking here there's the opportunity to view via foot, bicycle, coach or car.

Maytime is Blossom Time
Apple blossom so fleeting - one minute it's buds
the next full blossom
and then the petals start to fall...
