Blossom  by beryl

Blossom

The name of this young tree has completely evaded me -in daylight I may be able to see the name on the label that hopefully is still tied to its tree trunk !! Another lovely day I did a bit of tidying in the greenhouse this morning . And after an afternoon nap did a bit of tidying in the front garden -- so much to do at this time of year !!
Note --- Thank you to Paula @paulaw for correctly identifying this tree .
It is an -- Amelanchier Lamarchii (June Berry) --And is described as
1)Delicate star shaped white flowers in March April
2)Produces small edible purple -black,small fruit in June
3)The bronze leaves develop into dark green then orange and red in Autumn .
It is NOTED for its beautiful autumn leaf colous !
Beautiful blossom, i'd be interested in knowing what it is once you've found the label. Good shot.

@paulaw No Paula I think I would have remembered "magnolia " This is so bugging me now and it is too dark to see the label tonight !!

A very pretty tree. Yes I thought of a magnolia at first but the leaf is not the same.
