Our front yard dogwood has started its short flowering hello.
The buds have given away to the first delicate white petals. A bit of exposure will allow a bit of deepening to the color.
Then a big wind will send them all to the lawn.
My dear wife Karen and I will appreciate all stages.

Dogwoods remind me of my Mom. She loved dogwoods. She planted two at the Lake House.
Thanks for the sweet memories. Enjoy the beauty the tree gives you.

A camera set in your window that clicks every (minute or hour or day?) to see the changes would be interesting. I like seeing those videos that show plants moving around like they were actually alive.
