Gift of Spring

 The Double Flowering Plum is just beautiful! 

 It flowers first and then gets leaves.   It really needs a good trim...after it blooms. 

The flowers are like tiny roses. 

It is one of the gifts of Spring. 

Rain we need rain.  It could rain for a week and it still wouldn't be enough.

    What a beautiful bush! Does that grow wild? Can you get fruit from it or is it just for decoration? I've never seen one before. TFS!

    Oh yes, we too need the rain. I had a rain alert this morning suggesting rain in the next 24 hours BUT every forecast I read has none. Fingers crossed it comes soon.

    The flowering plum is lovely! I wish I had the room for more trees but then I'd have more yard to care for. Enjoy!

    I love flowering bushes. The buds are so fleeting, but so welcome after winter. We had a week of rain. Now I have planted endless annuals and we have no rain the forecast for 10 days. I will be watering.

    That is a gorgeous flowering bush. There is a crab apple tree down the block from us that is at its prime right now. But we need a week of rain too. We are getting a little sprinkle right now, but it’s just enough to make things damp. We need soggy.

    I'm glad you made it through your rough week and hope for better times ahead. We have some of those pretty flowers around here, too. I love them and am glad they don't make fruit! :-)

    That’s what our Redbuds do. They’ll be covered with purple blooms, then the green leaves appear as the blooms fade.

    Beautiful flowers. We had rain most of the day today and a chance of scatter t-storms every day next week but that has meant none for us every since I got here. Everything brightened up and looks gorgeous after the showers today. It was a nice soaking kind of rain, just perfect.
    Blessings,
    Betsy

    You are searching for all the confirming signs of spring! Hopefully, the rain will follow, as you hoped.
