DaisyI said: I hate to disagree but that's a Japanese Cherry tree. The flowers on almonds are sessile (attached directly to the branch) while cherry flowers are attached by a peduncle. Its a Japanese cherry because of the split in the tip of each petal.


According to various sources (like Southern Living) the most likely type of Cherry for this region is some sort of Yoshino Cherry (Prunus x yedoensis), and I see a few photos that look somewhat similar, though not exactly alike...

Thanks,
Virginia
