Known as Eastern Red Maple, Red Bud Maple and Swamp Maple. It's usually the first tree to bloom in early spring here in South Carolina. More info on this native tree here - http://namethatplant.net/plantdetail.shtml?plant=14
You have maple trees in full bloom, we have a winter weather travel advisory for tomorrow. Isn't nature fascinating?
Love the architectural shapes of these blooms against the blue sky.
