Do you know the type of tree?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

May is the month for flowering trees!\u00a0\u00a0 You’ve probably seen a few lately.\u00a0\u00a0 Some of my friends don’t seem interested in specifically what type of tree they are looking at … but I certainly am interested.<\/p>\n

How about the photo here at the top – do you know this one?\u00a0 Magenta flowers with green leaves.\u00a0 Flowering crabapple.<\/p>\n

How about the next one?\u00a0 Pink & magenta flowers, clustered close along the branches, and the leaves aren’t particularly showing yet.\u00a0 Eastern Redbud.<\/p>\n

As for trees with magenta flowers, there are only two others that are common.\u00a0 Magnolia flowers can range from mostly magenta, with a bit of white, to mostly white with a bit of magenta.\u00a0 (The latter is more common.)\u00a0 Uniquely, magnolia flowers are larger than any of our other common flowering trees.<\/p>\n

The last one is tricky.\u00a0 The flower buds, before blooming, can be magenta color.\u00a0 The flowers in bloom look like bright pink carnations.\u00a0 That’s a Kwanzan Cherry; there is nothing else like it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
