Wishing everyone a safe and happy weekend! Another season is on it's way...but WOW, weren't those flowering spring trees beautiful this year!

Tree of The Week (spring edition):
Weeping Cherry Tree (Prunus subhirtella 'Pendula')..yet another long-time favorite for so many reasons!
Weeping cherry trees are at their best in spring when it's drooping branches are covered with pink or white flowers: they shout such a boldly colorful statement. Few trees are more graceful in the landscape than the weeping variety, especially those that cascade with mounds of beautiful flowers. After the tree finishes blooming, leaving what looks like a blanket of pink or white snow beneath, it puts out glossy, dark green leaves, which make the tree a great addition for summer as well. Ebony berries follow in late summer, but don’t look for cherries; this tree is for ornamental use only - sorry...no cherries to eat. The various species and cultivars offer a wide range of sizes, from 8-foot dwarfs to 40-foot types with spreading canopies.
