i took a few pictures of the tree right outside of our apt. last week. all winter it was bare, and then a few weeks ago, almost over-night, it had the most beautiful pink blooms on it. this past week, the blooms turned into delicate white flowers.
the past few days the wind has blown most of the flowers off the branches... i felt like i was in a fairy-land every time i walked by the tree, white petals swirling around me, landing gracefully in my hair.
sad to say, i didn't get any pictures of it with the white flowers, thinking i still had some time before they would all fall off. last night we had a storm come through, and the wind blew all of the beautiful white blossoms to the ground. my mom said that the blossoms fall off, and then the tree will get berries and new growth. isn't nature amazing? God's creativity constantly overwhelms and inspires me.
all the white on the ground is petals from the tree:
