Possibly the earliest flowering cherry blossom, this spring cherry is putting on quite a show on a sunny, March afternoon.

The moment I saw this tiny sea pottery chip its colours reminded me of the sky at dusk. So here's the rising moon tangled in reeds

Laburnum anagyroides (golden chain)
Laburnum is a genus containing just two species of small trees within the pea family, Fabaceae. It flowers in the spring and then produces pods very similar to normal peapods. Parents beware: little children sometimes eat these pods by mistake and get very, very ill. All parts of the plant contain cytisine (a potent nicotinic receptor agonist) and are highly toxic to humans and pets. Strangely, rabbits and deer can eat it with no ill effect.
This plant is native to Central and Southern Europe but here it is on the west coast of Canada and yes, that’s the Pacific Ocean in the background. Proof once again that the international gardening community practices its own form of ‘globalization’ (and this planet will never be the same again).
