BLOSSOM

(Redirected from Blossoms)
:''Alternate meanings: See Blossom (disambiguation)''
'Blossom' is a term given to the flowers of stone fruit trees (Genus ''Prunus'') and of some other plants with a similar appearance that flower profusely but for a short period of time. Blossoms are either pink or white depending on the species or variety. Nectarine blossoms, peach blossoms, most cherry blossoms, and some almond blossoms are usually pink. Plum blossoms, apple blossoms, some cherry blossoms, and most almond blossoms are white.
Blossom trees have a tendency to lose their flower petals in wind blown cascades often covering the surrounding ground in petals. This attribute tends to distinguish ''blossom'' trees from other flowering trees.
