Each spring it’s customary to recite a prayer the first time we see the new flowering of a fruit tree. Typically recited in the Hebrew month of Nissan (usually March or April), it’s possible to recite this springtime prayer in a different month if you live in a climate where fruit trees don’t flower in Nissan.
On seeing the blossoming, say:
Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the Universe, Who has made nothing lacking in His world, and created in it goodly creatures and goodly trees to give mankind pleasure.
