I love that plant as well, Brian. I think Crabs are by far my most favorite bloomers, in the end. In fact, they also come in a stunning variety, too.

Your site is just terrific. I spent time there and loved it.

My absolute favorite is Cercis Canadensis [multistem]. The flowering effect combined with lighting of the twisted branches is absolutely amazing !!!!!!

What a beautiful bevy of bloomers; I especially liked the “time lapse” series, and the photos of the park. I agree about the flowering cherries and plums. We have some here which are either native or escapee; they produce rich masses of single flowers in pinkish or white, then the little cherry-sized plums in red or yellow. Live without summer water, too.

Dogwoods are another favorite of mine.

Very thought-provoking comments on why and where we plant flowering trees. As ever, Steve!
