Redbud Tree



(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.)

We have two redbud trees in our yard, and both are beginning to bloom. The one closest to the road is actually the prettiest. The picture above was taken last year at this time.

Beautiful, George. My gardens are just one growing zone to cold for redbuds to survive. Gardeners in Toronto can grow them though! They are so lovely!

Redbuds are everywhere around here! They grow wild along the roads and highways, all over the place!! I think many times they are unappreciated because there are so many. The picture of yours is georgous.

my mother loved the spring when all the rebud trees were in bloom, she used to beg me to ride her around to look at all of them. i did it, but wish i had done it without complaining. this one is certainly pretty.

This is so very pretty George!
I have a redbud tree and have been out trying to capture a good shot a couple of times without success. Yours gives me inspiration to try again. :)
