I have been watching the trees taking turns to be in bloom. First the white dogwood, then the locust with overlapping blossoms. Now those have faded, petals dropping silently, but the redbud and crabapples are taking their turns. Early pollinators will find sustenance of one kind or another while the flowers bloom on their own timeline.
Beautiful! Here we are still awaiting the tree blossoms… but it will come soon! I love how you’ve noticed each different blossoms as one fades, another blooms!
I noticed for the first time yesterday as I was walking through our community, I noticed one of the young trees and the smallest of the group amongst other trees in the green space, FULL of buds. It was such a welcome sight to see! 💖 🙏 ☺️. The weather lately has been up and down, cold and windy, but seeing all those buds was like a big "hello" from spring! 🌳 😁

Amazing! A “hello” from spring and Mother Nature! How wonderful!
