It’s almost like visiting a botanical garden when you pay attention to your neighbors’ gardens. This slightly pink rose begins with bright orange buds.

Silly me, I didn’t realize that they are in the same family as forget me nots. Myosotis Snowsylva.

The buds of the redbud tree do start off red (or magenta) and the flowers are pink (or pale purple), giving the impression of pink. There’s also lots of lichen and a green caterpillar on one of the buds – squint to see it.
