First germination in the allotment and blossom in the orchard

After about three weeks the first green shoots have appeared in the allotment. The parsnips have started coming through in all three rows - not complete germination yet, more like 30%, but a good start.
This evening we also saw the first peas coming through. Still no sign of the dahlias, cann or potatoes. In the orchard the best blossom is on the mirabelle and cherry trees at the moment. You can see our house through the mirabelle tree.
And to bring some balance we only have two sets of pear blossom, one on each tree (Glou Morçeau). Last year we had endless pears, so no cause for complaint.
