We are in the midst of our spectacular spring flower show.
In spite of the rain and cold, get out and enjoy!
In Northern Ohio, we have passed the spring blooms of Cornelian Cherry Dogwood, Star Magnolia, and Saucer Magnolia.
Flowering Cherries are beginning to fade.
But many spring flowering plants are putting on quite a show.

Crabapples are spectacular this year.
Flowering Dogwoods are beautiful,
both white
and pink varieties.
Redbud is vibrant with deep purple
and hot pink flower colors.
Even in the woods, where redbuds are native as an understory plant, they are beautiful.
Lilacs,
both white and purple are beautiful to see and smell.
Soon, Buckeyes and Horse chestnuts will bloom.
So, get out today and marvel at nature’s artistic palette!
