White and pink flowers create a beautiful backdrop that many people rush to admire, sooner than expected.
Almond trees are usually among the first to bloom in early spring, in early March to Aprilin the Central European country.
However, this year the trees bloomed two weeks earlier.
Almond producing regions include; California, the countries around the Mediterranean Sea, Chile and Australia. But it is a strange fact for the Czech Republic, given its colder climate.
Mild winters are not harmful to the flowers here, but the cold temperatures are.
“It’s really nothing out of the ordinary”Katerina Kopova said Tuesday about the early bloom.
Kopova owns a local family company that produces various almond products, including alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, and helps maintain and grow the grove.
“We had a similar situation five years ago. But of course, there is a risk of frost,” he said. “Today, we’re a little nervous because the forecast calls for sub-zero temperatures and a few frosty mornings would be enough to ruin the crop.”
