Three years ago, March 10, 2019, I noted these first blooms on the flowering almond shrub at Deerpoint Lake. Last year on the same date I stopped by the our then vacant house to check on this shrub and enjoy the signs of spring……..
An old fashioned shrub that made it through the storm! Flowering almond. Tiny pink flowers are an early harbinger of spring. Happy happy!
This week I will return there and ask for a small cutting from it. It was transplanted from my grandparents’ home in Clayton, Alabama.
