Backyard Spring Blooms 2024 - Part 1

 

 Howdy effuryone! Welcome to Nature Friday, where we can meet some new friends and maybe share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville. Spring has really been Springing around here lately, in the past two weeks color has been popping up all over the place!! Mama took so may pictures, we've broken this up into two parts so your eyes don't get tired. This week let's show you our pretty bushes.

Starting with the sweet smelling lilacs,

These are pictures of the same lilac bush. The lighting on a rainy day gives them a lavender

color.

When the sun comes out a little you can see the transformation begin

..and in the morning sun, their color gets even richer.

 

 Plus, they smell soooooo good!!

Next let's move on to our pinky pink bush!

Our pink bush is usually first to bloom and this year was no different. Mama thinks it is some kind of Ornamental Flowering Almond shrub, but doesn't know exactly what kind of bush it is for sure.

 

It's pretty cool to watch the green leaves grow under the pink blooms.

 

Here's a closer look.

 

These only are in bloom for a short time, and are already more leaves than flowers. We savored every day of powder pink we had!

 

 

 Thanks for joining us for a look at the Spring Blooms in our backyard. Next week we'll be joining YAM Aunty a with FFF post  and we'll be back the first Friday in May with the rest of our backyard blooms!
