Bridal Spirea In Bloom

Since that terrible awful no good winter we had that didn't get above zero for a whole month these shrubs have been fabulous and performed wonderfully well.   This year they are the best yet and we expect them to get better every year.   We had to trim out a little dead wood, but they have grown well.

Tulip Tree In Bloom

The Tulip Tree doesn't bloom every year, but this year it seems to be doing really well.  Blooms started on the south side and are working around the tree.  It's a lovely addition to the blooms in the front yard.
