04-10-08 What's Blooming

2008.04.10
I had forgotten what this tree was called. Lucky for me, I have fantastic PB friends who reminded me that they were Lilacs!! Thanks everyone!





Azaleas in my front yard.


More azaleas in the front yard.


These are the dandelions that Cash picked for me. :)

Yes! This is an extensive amount of photos for me. I feel like people get bored if they go past 5 or 6, but I just couldn't help it. Playing in the yard yesterday I realized how many trees and bushes were in bloom! The air smelled sweet and the color was enchanting. I went a little nuts taking photos, then had a super hard time narrowing it down.

Hopefully everyone will enjoy the set and forgive me for going on and on and on and on......

flower power to all,
Tracy

aknor Wow...I can smell spring now - these are beautiful. As I look out at my snow covered yard and the temp gauge reads 8 degrees the only thing green here is me...with envy! Enjoy!!

majikmonkee I looked at them all...and I'm glad that I did. I really live the pink bulb-shaped flowers, but the whole set is very beautiful. I love dandelions, unlike some people I know, but they are so beautiful in their simplicity. I've been guilty of posting 20+ photos even after excessive "pruning" of my pictures, so I make a point to return the favor when others have a lot to post!

oldbabe Nope, didn't get bored! How sweet that Cash picked you some lovely flowers (before they go to seed all over the place).

The first are lilacs! I can smell them now! Lovely! (If you want to cut them and put them in a vase you have to slit or hammer the stems so they can take up water and last longer in a vase).

jenjung i love lilacs too! I love seeing them hanging over doorways and awnings and stuff - beautiful flowers - cash picked some really nice dandelions for you!

KerBear These photos are definitely gorgeous.... and not boring at all! I find I always love when I stumble into my friends photoblogs and see an assortment of photos because you all always do such a wonderful job!!.... Lilacs are so beautiful... I looooove the smell of them!! They remind me of when I was little! Great set!

ambersunsets You could have posted more shots like these, and I still would have not been bored. These are gorgeous. The first shot is absolutely breathtaking! Awesome perspective in #7. Love the brightness of the white in #9. And all 10 are beautifully composed. I'll come back to this page often, so I'm saving the first shot.
