Something beautiful

 

On my regular loop, I walk by several of these incredibly lovely small trees.  How many plants flower and fruit at the same time?  

Fruit development in Arbutus unedo is delayed for about 5 months after pollination, so the lily-of-the valley-like flowers bloom while the previous year's fruit is ripening.  Arbutus is also know by the sweet handle "Strawberry Tree." 

 I hope everyone is OK.
