Trees in Bloom_2022

The blossoms on the magnolia tree in my yard were not as prolific this spring. I attribute that problem to the black spot that I detected on the branches last summer. I was thinking that I may have to cut off some of the branches, but the tree seems to have recovered, thanks to the bone meal that my wife sprinkled near the roots. 

The redbud trees where I live were particularly pretty this year. I didn't get outside with my camera as often as I should have, however. I need to start keeping my camera in the car during the spring so that I can capture more of what I see when walking or driving through the town.

Fortunately, I got pictures of the pear trees that were blooming this spring. I am adding a few pictures below. These pictures were taken over a two day period.
