Oh yes! Are they white dogwoods? That would be so pretty with the pink redbuds

I like redbuds.

I like to plane dogwoods among them, because both bloom at the same time and they make a nice contrast one with the other while blooming.

That is so beautiful and makes me very happy.

I plant as many trees as I can each year. Mostly it’s redbuds because those seedlings grow like weeds around the trees I have. But I do have a goal of my my backyard woods being filled with Redbuds🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

This is very cool. From Costa Rica, a radio collared Baird's tapir teaching her offspring how to forage Jícaro Danto (Parmentiera valerii) fruit.
The tree is quite rare -- like cacao and redbuds it has cauliflory (flowers/fruit sprout from trunk not branches).
Colour photo by Michiel van Noppen. Background showing green jungle understory vegetation. In the foreground is a tree trunk -- higher up it has green sausage-like fruit dangling from the bark. A brown-furred Baird's tapir has her head raised to nibble at the bark. She is wearing a radio collar. A smaller tapir (adult colour so older than 6 months) is standing to the left. There appear to be pieces of fruit scattered at the base of the tree, perhaps dropped by the tapirs.

Agree! Love redbuds…first time I noticed them was when visiting friends in Clear Lake CA many years ago. So beautiful. Tried growing in my neck of the woods but didn’t have any luck. 🌱

We have redbuds, also. I so look forward to them every spring. That’s a very pretty one in the photo.

Spring trips to Grammy and Pappy's meant redbuds blooming pink in the forest. I've adored them ever since, and now two grow in my own yard. 💗🌳

A close-up photograph of lovely Eastern Redbud blossoms in full spring bloom. Delicate pink and purple flowers cluster directly along a textured gray branch, a signature trait of the redbud tree, whose blossoms burst straight from the bark before its leaves appear. Each petite, pea-shaped flower opens in soft layers of pale pink and deeper magenta, while plump, rosy flower buds wait their turn to unfurl. Slender reddish stems hold the blooms out from the rough, weathered bark, creating a striking contrast between the tree's rugged branch and its tender blossoms. The background melts into a soft, blurred wash of green garden foliage, making this spring flower photograph feel fresh, peaceful, and full of seasonal color.

It's a split between the Redbud and Lavender trees. Redbuds are popular trees here.

And do you love redbuds as much as me? I’m blessed to have multiple volunteers in my front yard. Transplanted two of them, one remains. If you want to dig it up and move it to your yard, let me know. I’d hate to have to compost it.

Our currently convoluted reality precluded the Equinox snap of the mysterious seasonal spin of the pointer atop my front yard calendar cairn—to the west for Autumn in this case! Symbolic of the sunset as the year begins to wane, with bonus full fall (harvest?) moon.
Cairn lit by red floodlight and encircling purple led string, with adjacent redbuds glowing crimson as if on fire.

Did you know that Eastern Redbud was named Tree of the Year in Guelph by Guelph Tree Trust? Redbuds are a beautiful, medium-sized tree with bright purple blossoms and heart-shaped leaves.

Nice! I have loads of tiny circles cut out of my redbuds especially but I've never seen an actual leafcutter bee

Io moth caterpillar. I think this one is looking for a place to pupate because they eat tree leaves and it's checking out the Standing Cypress. The spines are venomous. #caterpillars #insects 🌱 #gardening #lepidoptera
A fat lime-green caterpillar with many branching thistle-like spines that are larger and denser on the head end, and long narrow stripes of red and white down each side, Automeris io. It is on the ground about to climb on the leaves of a Standing Cypress plant. There is a boneset seed clinging to its side.This caterpillar eats oaks, redbuds, hackberries, plums, and lots of other common trees and shrubs, and the moth is very pretty.

2 to issue forth suddenly as water, or as Executive Orders renaming bodies of water America. As pink blossoms from the redbuds, flaunting their promises, their promiscuity. Also, as uterine blood from a woman sent home from the ER...

It’s a gray day, figuratively and literally, so here’s some raindrop-bejeweled viney flora to brighten it.

Little blue morning glories that have writhed up one of my redbuds by the calendar cairn circle out front. Close up a raindrop bespeckled blue and purple morning glory on the front arbor Tiny red trumpet flowers on the vines which have engulfed the front arbor. A couple weeks ago there were barely a few skinny vines, so this pleases me immensely. Close up of a red trumpet with dangling raindrop.

Thanks! I’m thinking a shade tree, single stem? We already have 2 redbuds in the backyard, and nearby street trees are Sweetgum. Some kind of maple?

Whoopsies yeah forgot to post for a while, life well has been lifing, so yeah.

Today’s Happy: just a lovely quiet and cozy day. Didn’t realize how much I needed a day that was just soft and calm. Did a little puttering in the garden, some snuggling with the puppy, and a nice fire in the fireplace.
Our fireplace in the living room which is decorated a bit chaotically right now with lights, garlands, plants, and has a lovely little fire in it. Panda a small black and white puppy curled up next to me on the couch. View out our front door at the front walk surrounded by plants, flowers, two different types of redbuds and more. One of our darkleaf hibiscus that just started blooming for the year with a giant pink and white bloom

flooded soil is perfect for redbuds

lol, congrats on the payoff from your garden. Someone cut down a tree adjacent to my favorite trail, and I think I’m going to plant redbuds and a pollinator garden in new sunlight by the creek. It floods a couple times a year. Should be decent soil to grow from.
