Pear flower opening hours:

Pear is a famous ornamental plant, and most varieties bloom every spring. Due to the climate differences in different regions of China, the flowering time of pear flowers is also different. Pear blossoms in Dangshan usually bloom around mid-March every year, in Hebei Province around mid-April in spring, and in Beijing from late April to May.

The poem "If the spring breeze comes, the night comes, blowing open the petals of ten thousand pear trees" refers to pear flowers, which are spring flowers. In spring, the earth began to warm up, and pear blossoms everywhere at this time, just like snowflakes, as if to cover the earth with a layer of white clothes.
