Week 11- Port Monmouth, NJ

On April 9, 2023 at 12:43 pm, I visited Cloves Lake Park, on Staten Island. On this day, the weather was 59 degrees fahrenheit and it was cloudy with some sun. This picture was taken in the beginning of the park near the bus station. This picture shows Japanese cherry trees, also known as cherry blossoms or Sakura in Japanese, refer to several species of cherry trees that are native to Japan and are known for their beautiful and iconic flowers. Cherry blossoms are typically pink or white, although there are also varieties with yellow or greenish flowers. The flowers are usually small, with five petals arranged in clusters called umbels. They bloom in the spring, usually for a short period of time, depending on the species and weather conditions, and create a stunning display of delicate flowers covering the branches of the trees.
