| Could be a Japanese quince, even a peach. There is a peach tree over the back fence with dark pink blossoms. |

| Could it possibly be a flowering plum? My nectarine tree is in flower at the moment it has pink flowers. I havent seen a fruit tree with deep pink flowers! My quinces, I have two varieties: Reas Mammoth and Fullers have only perfumed light pink flowers. hope this helps Helen |

| The trouble is they look pretty much the same until the leaves appear. Let's hope it's a peach!! |

| Nectarine are normally a lighter pink I reckon : ) at this time of year I'll place my money on a Peach or Crab Apple |

| There are several ornamental varieties of the prunus family which have deep pink blossoms, otherwise I agree with Nicefrog, it could be a crab apple. Cheers, Jules |

| Its an Apple tree!If the leaves appear first, then tiny pink blossoms occur then its definately an apple. (I have four different apple trees and they all do it.) |
