THE REDBUD TREE

Last May we planted a redbud tree in our yard to replace the very old once beautiful flowering crab tree that has to be taken down this year (after the side that's still alive) finishes blooming. We watered it and fertilized it and watered it and watered it.

We gave the tree a name, "Oscar's tree" after our friend, Oscar the cat, down the street.


Well, it's blooming! It's the little one to the left.

Thank you again, Oscar's people for the tree.
We just can't wait till next year!

Very nice! Despite us taking down some bushes from our back yard recently I do like trees. I'd lover to plant some lovely flowering trees as you have here! We have a may-day in the front and I love it!

Beautiful tree. We don't have any blooming trees. I think maybe we need to get one or two.

Have a great weekend, Cas !!

I love the color! We planted two trees when we moved in to our house, a crab apple tree and a smoke bush. Both are doing great. Hope you have a nice weekend.

That is such a gorgeous tree! I love the color. The reason you have the tree is really great too :-)

Have a great weekend!
