Hints of what was once an unseasonably warm winter still remain here and there, as we head into what may be quite the snowy weekend.

One of our first flowering trees to herald the arrival of the beautiful cherry blossom season is the Japanese apricot.

A Japanese plum blossom wakes in the Ladies’ Border. I’m thinking the cherry blossoms can’t be all that far behind. Happy Sunday!

“In the spring, I have counted 136 different kinds of weather inside of 24 hours.”
— Mark Twain
Snow, sleet, or flighty sun, the plum blossoms seem to be taking spring’s early days in stride. The rest of the Garden, likewise, follows suit. I hope your Friday is as bright.

The Japanese apricot flowers out in our Home Gardening Center are seasonally deceptive with those warm colors, aren’t they? But don’t fret–not all is misleading. Our Caribbean Garden opens later this month!
