F is for Flowers
Springtime has arrived on Maui as evidenced by this gorgeous Cherry Blossom tree blooming in Kula. This tree is so beautiful I had to stop and take many photos of it. The Cherry Blossom is the national flower of Japan, and it represents "more than just ascetic beauty, but also transience, melancholy, and the honor of graceful resignation."Labels: cherry blossoms, daily photobloggers, flowers of Spring, national flower of Japan, sakura, Springtime on Maui

So beautiful. The sky is so spectacular behind it too!
Beautiful Spring-time blossoms. Our trees are beginning to pop too. Such a pretty time of year.
That's a beautiful picture of the cherry blossoms! The city of Macon, Georgia has a big cherry blossom festival every spring when the many planted trees there are in bloom. I've never been but pictures I've seen are fantastic.
Wonderful picture! The tree is so beautiful! It's to bad it don't always have flowers on.
PLEASE send some of that Spring here to VERY COLD NYC
Nice choice for F
It looks really pretty against those clouds and blue sky.
How beautiful that tree is and i am so jealous of your spring already
What a lovely sight! You got 'hanami' earlier there! Good day!
ah the cherry blossom - the epitome of springtime
The blossoms are delicate and lovely. The tree itself has an unusual shape.
Our cherry blossom is just in bud! Lovely tree, my favourite here.
very nice photo, the colors from the tree and sky are amazing... i wish spring would hurry up and get here!
I have hopes of seeing flowers when all our snow melts.
It is still winter here in Washington, but signs of spring will soon include a patchwork of fruit orchards in bloom--the cherry blossoms a significant part of that vista.
Very beautiful! :)
I love it, and really don't spend too much time looking at it outside my window-Gen
Beautiful! I love cherry blossom.
I envy you - we get those in May!
I am a bit late in commenting, but better late than never!
