More Flowers

This picture above is from the Dogwood Tree. It is the Virginia's state tree and flower. There are also pink flowers on some trees. I'm still trying to get a nice picture of the pink flowers.
Here are some bluebells. Aren't they so delicate? I'm also trying to get some pink bluebells...I wonder if they are still called bluebells if they are pink in color?
This is wisteria. I love the way it hangs in clumps like grapes.
This is a picture of more cherry blossoms. These are called Chinese Cherry Blossoms and are really full and lacy. Unfortunately, we've had a lot of rain lately and most of the blossoms have been pelted off of the trees. I'm glad I did get a few pictures before the rains.
Beautiful tulips. They also no longer exist because of the rains. By the way, the three tornados that were here in Virginia were in the southern part of Virginia...about two and half or three hours away from us. We just got a lot of rain.

Hi There! I'm a long lost cousin of SM, and I've visited your blog several times. I LOVED the flower pictures in this post so much that I put one on my desktop! I've been enjoying it for several weeks now, and thought you might like to know. Have a great day!
