Redbuds in bloom! Finally!
In the last week, other bloomers: Shadbush, Spicebush, Bradford Pears, Cherries, Field Pansies, Spring Beauties, Blood Root, Rue Anemones, lots of violets, lots of leafing out, hooray!
Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
--Robert Frost, "Nothing Gold Can Stay"
Enjoying the spring ephemerals!
