Blossoms Popping on my Apricot Tree

Last night I was outside with the boys, playing in the sandbox and in the yard as the sun was going down. The weather has been pleasant, but still cool enough that we were wearing jackets.

As we ran around the yard a little speck of white caught my eye.


These are the only two blossoms that have popped out so far. I am hoping the rest wait a couple of days. We are supposed to get a storm by Monday, and I don't want the blossoms to freeze off! I have plans for those apricots!

    Very cool picture. Our trees are in full bloom; it's like a sea of white. My kids love it!

    We have had such nice weather the past few days and things are really starting to come out. Hope they get more TLC from the weather this year!

    Love the pic. Makes me long for my flowers to bloom!

    Neat picture! The only flowers I've seen so far are some crocuses at my boyfriends parents, none of the trees are blooming yet but the buds are starting to open!

    Hurray for spring!

    Those must be the same family as plums because those beautiful flowers look exactly like the ones that always grace my plum trees in spring. I should be able to show similar pictures within the next 5 weeks!!

    It's funny you would post a pic of your apricot tree. I was thinking of doing the same thing! I was out by mine yesterday and I already have tons of fruit on it!!! Seems early to me, but I'll take it.

    Have a good weekend

    Beautiful! And just think how everything will smell when all the blossoms are out...I did a lot of yardwork today, and have to say that I'm a pretty tired puppy!
