It's a puzzle how something as beautiful as the Bradford pear can smell so awful! They are really starting to bloom now and will for another week or two before they start leafing out and losing the bloom (and odor)
Beautiful shot Milanie...shame about the lack of perfume but the spring growth looks great...thankyou for you kind comments on my pix too...cheers john
What a wonderfully sunny capture, the colours and light are gorgeous! It does seem strange that those flowers would have a bad smell - maybe it's aimed at some insect that will enjoy it and pollinate it.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!! Everything about this picture is gorgeous! Fav. It is amazing though that something this pretty smells rather UN-pretty. Congrats on the TP/PP status.
Your generous comment on my vinegar picture is a treasure. Thanks for seeing such quality in the image. I'm touched.
