2015 March 25: Last autumn we planted a weeping cherry tree in our yard; all winter I eagerly looked forward to seeing it bloom when spring arrived. Today my patience was rewarded as the tree's buds opened into beautiful blossoms!
Thanks for your comments, @Frances Klein and @Paul! I hope that you are able to replace yours, Frances Klein ...They look to be beautiful plants! Paul, I know how you feel; we are expecting 29 degrees tonight, and I want the extreme cold to go away so I can plant my garden!
