White dogwood trees spread in layers of white under tall sycamores.
Normally spring flowers bloom in a certain order over a month or so. This spring we had cold weather including some late snow and the early stuff didn't get much of a chance. Then when the snow went away it got really warm and everything exploded into bloom at about the same time. Susan and I drove around yesterday and I tried to take pictures of what was out. I have never seen all these things blooming at the same time.
Yellow Forsythia usually is an early bloomer.
The Tulip tree is a kind of magnolia.
The purple Wisteria vine is spectacular.
Even the Azaleas are beginning to flower.

Wonderful trees and flowers.

What a glorious sextet of pictures - not sure you can call trees and shrubs a "sextet" but it's what came into my mind when I saw them.
Six of anything is a sextet as far as I'm concerned. This is a beautiful time of year for us.
Yes we are having a glorious multicolored simultaneous instead of sequential spring this year.
Great photos TG.
Those are gorgeous blosoms!
I soooo miss spring :)
Bill, vos photos sont merveilleuses et ravissent l'oeil.
Bisous à Suzan, à vous et caresses à Smokey.

I'm hooked on the golf from Augusta but their azaleas are way behind their normal flowering.
Still a beautiful golf course though.
Yogi says it best, a multicolored simultaneous instead of sequential spring. I couldn't say it better.
I love the first picture, it's an interesting contrast.
Nice trees. We have these kind in one of the apartment gardens. They look beautiful.
Nice canopy contrast. The blooming Redbud adds a lot of visual 3D. You're having a spectacular spring, I'm envious.
It is clearly a while since I visited. I like this ... we don't get colours like this in the wild.
