👉How to distinguish plum blossom, cherry blossom and peach blossom?

1. The shape of their petals看花瓣的形状The easiest way to spot the difference between a cherry, plum or peach flower is by observing the petal’s natural shape.Cherry blossoms have a unique cleft(裂口) at the tip of their petals.Plum blossoms have rounded petals, while peach blossoms have tear-drop shaped petals.个人感觉，看花瓣来区分是最容易记忆和分辨的方式呢。

2. The way they’re attached to the tree看花朵和树枝连接的方式Another easy way to tell the three beautiful blossoms apart is how they’re attached to the tree.

Cherry blossoms have long stems that attach them to the branch from a single bud.

Plum blossoms grow out from the branch itself and literally have no stems.

Peach blossoms have shorter stems which have two flowers sprouting from the same branch.

3. The color of their petals

Cherry blossom:

colors usually range from white to pink.

Plum blossom:

colors usually range from white to dark crimson with a purple shade

Peach blossom:

colors range from light pink to light purple.

通过上面三种方式，基本能辨别出来樱花、梅花和桃花啦。此外，从花期来看，开花先后稍微有点不同，按时间顺序应该是梅花→桃花→樱花。梅花有浓郁的香味，樱花桃花则基本没有味。
