Photos of Early Spring Flowering

 

 

 

 

We're into late spring now, but these photos were taken in April. The redbud, also known as the Judas Tree, shows its colorful buds well before the leaves break out.

The ubiquitous Forsythia is blooming everywhere. There's hardly a household or farm which doesn't have some growing wild. You can pull up the spreading shoots and plant them elsewhere. The great thing about them is that they appear when the rest of the landscape is barren.

Those little things are wildflowers. Does anyone know the name of those little delicate flowers? I don't and I haven't had time to research that.
