Pink Dogwood
(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.)
One of the sure signs of Spring is the blossoms on the pink dogwood tree in our front yard. The blossoms never seem to stay around as long as we would like, but they are beautiful while they last.
Ooh it's such a fine specimen ! We used to have two pink dogwood trees...large ones, but sadly some kind of ants took over, and destroyed the entire trees. We now have the new white ones, I was told they are hardier, lets hope so. Such a beautiful, and meaningful tree.
Beautiful and fantastic shot !! Loved the post !Also please visit my New Blog About Paranormal Studies of India.Click on the Link to view it Unseen Rajasthan Paranormal
until you posted your pink dogwood I thought they were all white. that is the only ones i have seen, the white ones grow wild in KY, i think i like the pink better
Thats pretty We had a dog wood and the leaves of the tree looked like they were always wilting Of course thats the way they are I felt sorry for that tree.

Oh how I love dogwood trees!!!
Seeing this photo makes me miss my days in Georgia!!
When it starts to bloom, we see its inner beauty.
The colour is spectacular, Geoge! I did enlarge it and WOW!
The pink in that second dogwood is exceptional! Don't you love this time of year??

I did not reaize there is a pink variety of this. How neat.
This is lovely, and I must say I've never seen this color, or known it existed. All our pink ones around here are very light pastel.
Stunning!
I hope it is as fragrant as it is beautiful.
such a lovely flower George.
Wow,that's gorgeous,especially when enlarged.
Blessings,Ruth
