SOOC19 Chinese maple

The leaves are a remarkable shade of pink when they first come out in spring.

So pretty and I love the color. The off kilter is nice too.

[Marnie]

@joysabin Thanks Joy. Truth be told, I had to take it off-kilter because the stuff that's grown up around the base of the tree meant I couldn't get right underneath.

[Pam Knowler]

Wow what a glorious colour! Great against that blue sky!

[sarah]

So pretty nice shot

[Sally Ings]

Beautiful colour, it really pops against the blue sky.

[Marnie]

@pamknowler It's gorgeous for a couple of weeks every year, then pretty ordinary.

[Marnie]

@samae thanks.

[Marnie]

@salza You're right. I was hanging out some washing when I looked up and bingo, there was today's shot.

[Taffy]

Love the pink against the blue sky.

[Susan.T.]

[Margo]

So pretty against the blue

[Marnie]

@taffy Thanks Taffy, you would've laughed watching me get into the jungle of flowers 'n stuff that's growing underneath. Nearly fell flat on my moosh.

[Marnie]

@taffy Sorry, moosh is Aussie for face.

[Marnie]

@skippysue @777margo Many thanks folks.

[Babs]

[Walks @ 7]

Hate when my Gardner (which is moi) doesn't do his work.

[FBailey]

And I thought the pink was blossom!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I really like this- especially since it's a Southern Hemisphere version of this!

@onewing Pity it doesn't last a bit longer! Those leaves go green all too quickly.

[Marnie]

@gilbertwood I love the pink leaves, but they're a bit like blossome. Here today, gone next week.

[Marnie]

@hermann Thanks Sally.

[Marnie]

@caterina Thanks.

[Marnie]

@joysabin I know that problem!

[Marnie]
