When I take Millie for her morning walk, I pass several huge Horse Chestnut Trees. I've never taken any notice of the flowers on these trees but having stopped today to look (and photograph them) I realised how pretty they are. From a distance they look white but close up it is obvious that they have shades of yellow and pink.
I wonder how long it will be before the leaf miners come and destroy the leaves.
Interestingly, The flower is the symbol of the city of Kiev, capital of Ukraine.
Are they all as colourful as this? It had passed me by, if so! X
