The last of the cherry blossoms still in bloom around here. So pretty in pink.

I would call this a magenta pink bud tree, but that’s a mouthful.

My neighbor’s tulips remind me of peonies. Spring has been exploding around here and yet, I haven’t been taking many photos. House repairs, work, always energetic dog, gardening, decisions to be made, and my pursuit of trying to learn watercolors have taken over, but trust me, I am enjoying every flower and flowering tree I see.

Looking for any clue that spring is arriving. I love the subtle colors of this budding branch and hope to figure out what kind of tree it is once the leaves come out.

Vines grab and grow onto whatever they can find reaching for the sun. Happy Cinco de Mayo

So many white buds gathered together looking like a mass of popcorn.

Spring has arrived and there’s a nice long weekend ahead to enjoy it.

Just Maybe

There is a slight chance of some sun today, maybe my crocuses will open one more time and it will be light enough to see them this evening.
