Flowers from My last Hike

An hour ago, I wanted to write something in English but didn't know what topic to choose.

I grabbed my phone to look at the pictures in it. Then I chose to share the flowers from my last hike, which happened on Sunday.

You can find the images in this video: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/kqAljgsBRA4

The first type is white plum blossom, which I didn't mention in the video.

The second type is very unique. It's called the messenger of spring in the mountains of East China, because it's always the first one to blossom, and the flowers can blossom for more than a month.

Cherry blossoms and plum blossoms are quite common, so I believe I don't need to introduce them to you. I enjoy them as well.

Thank you so much!

I just uploaded another video of plum blossoms. You can watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/6dflch3rm88

There are many different types and colors of them. Chinese people love plum blossoms because they can bloom in cold days.

I have changed this to 2 sentences just for clarity.
There is subtle difference between the verbs "blossom" and "bloom". Blossom is the early stage of a flower, when it's just starting to open. A bloom is when it's a full flower. So, flowers start by blossoming and can then stay in bloom for weeks or months.

Thank you for the detailed explanation! That’s the first time I’ve heard about the difference between blossom and bloom. I really appreciate it.

And you are so nice to say that about my accent. I am always afraid that people can’t understand what I’m saying🤣
