Red Buds ? Yup, Red Buds!


Ok so we came from up north and now witnessing the most fantastic spring...
Can not believe the amount of flowering trees. Cherry , apple, dogwood, yellow, red and purple trees.
The picture is of a tree that blooms here in NC all over the place.
I asked my friend, Tim, at work what they were called... He said "Red Buds"..
Hmmm, I really didn't believe him actually and Myron and I laughed about the "Red Buds"
But I owe Tim a major lunch out... they are called Red Buds and the Latin name is Cercis Canadensis. They are simply beautiful.
