my backyard is a blooming...

I wish the tree looked like this all year long.

I wish it had a smell like a carnation, though, since it looks like one.


My back yard is in bloom. The dogwoods are blooming and my Kwaanzan Cherry is showing off its pink, fluffy blossoms.

I think it is interesting that dogwood blossoms have those brown edges. It adds a unique aspect to the look of the flower.


Lovely.

See, aren't these pretty? I love how this photo turned out. The contrast of the light pink with the darkness of the background.

I wish the blooms remained on the trees all the time. Green leaves are nice and all, but the colorful flowers are so much nicer.
