Two days ago, I remembered the white plum trees in the Sai Kung Lions Club Nature Education Center, so I asked a photographer who is familiar with flower news in Hong Kong. He checked and told me that they will bloom this week. This kind of answer is very authoritative, because when answering, the flowers must not have bloomed, but you can clearly tell when it will bloom, as if you have received a notification, which is very authoritative.
After two days, I happened to be free, but the sky was overcast and sometimes rained. Thinking that if the plum blossoms are in bloom, the water droplets hanging on the flowers are also very beautiful, so I called my friends who live nearby and made an appointment to see the flowers and take pictures together.
When we arrived at the nature education center, we parked the car. Probably because of the bad weather, there were few tourists in the park. There were only a couple of brides-to-be who were taking wedding photos, braving fine rain powder, posing and insisting on completing the task.
There are still some people who want to take pictures of plum blossoms, but not many, they take pictures around a few trees.
The flowering period has come, the branches of the plum tree are covered with bulging flower buds, and the flowers are blooming a lot, the fog is very heavy, and sometimes it rains, there are strings of water drops hanging on the branches, and the petals are also decorated with water drops , Shiny, making the first blooming white plum blossoms more delicate. If you are looking for such a weather to visit, what you want to see is this watery scenery. This kind of effect cannot be photographed on a sunny day. So I took some photos before the rain became heavier, which was very beautiful. Ten minutes later, the rain became heavier and heavier, so I had to run into a nearby house to take shelter. The house is full of park staff, and they are also sheltering from the rain. So they chatted one after another, and asked about the flowers of the four seasons in the garden, when the plum blossoms bloom, when the pear blossoms bloom, when the peach blossoms bloom, and when the lotus blooms, they all know it well. An aunt said that the plum blossoms hardly bloomed last year, but this year they bloomed vigorously. The implication is that we are lucky. Hearing this made me happy, so I didn’t care about getting wet like a drowned rat.
