The yellow flowers could be eranthis hyemalis, dandelion or aconites. The trees are probably cherries, apples or plums. If the flower looks like it could be cultivated in the fields then it is probably Rape - from which rape seed oil is made :-)
Reply:not sure about the yellow flowers but the pink frothy blossom trees are flowering cherries(fruits not edible though), some of the darker ones are flowering plums,again grew for their ornamental use only
Reply:Yellow flowers are probably gorse.





The flowering cherry is sure to be Prunus Kanzan which was very fashionable 25 years ago asit was a strong grower.





Hope this helps
Reply:The flowers are dandelions and the blossom could be cherry or apple.
