Larch Roses

These 'roses' on the larch tree grow at the tips of shoots as you can see, and eventually turn into cones. I'd never noticed them before. My brother pointed them out on our walk in Braemar yesterday. I thought they were quite lovely.

@casablanca Yes, mini pineapples!

@tinley23 Yes, it was tricky as the branches were moving around in the breeze!

How beautiful! They do look like tropical fruit of some kind.

They have the right shape to turn into cones but the bright pink is a surprise.
