Crab Apple Blossoms


Every year, I look forward to May as the time when the crab apple trees are blossoming. We get about a week of this lovely pinkish-purple color in the trees, which are all over town. The tree on our property was a late bloomer this year, as it seemed that all of the other trees in town had already reached their full purple with the flowers out, while our tree still had a bunch of unopened buds on it. And then, yesterday, our tree began to open, but we had a really heavy rain/thunderstorm. So, I'm hoping that the flowers survived and that there will be many more pictures to be taken over the course of the next few days.
