The Pear Trees

 The Pear Trees are blooming now. They are always the first tree to bloom in the spring.





These last two shots are the same trees, but taken from different angles. 



A pear is a failed apple.

Wow they are beautiful. Not so good if you have allergies. I used to have a flowering pear tree. It never bothered me back in my younger years. Now I’ve found the last few years I’m allergic to orange blossoms.

The trees are absolutely beautiful. We have pear trees blooming here now but they are not nearly as pretty.

They are beautiful! We have a street by us that is lined with pear trees. They haven't started to bloom yet though!

My eyes and nose are a testament to that.

These photos are so pretty, Ginny, and they look like post cards! I can't pick a favorite, I love them all. They must look so pretty gracing the streets in your area. I have seen the pink blossom trees here in town. Spring is on it sway. That last tree is GRAND and BEAUTIFUL.

Good grief! I don't think I have ever seen a Bradford Pear that fluffy. That is gorgeous! A lot of our flowering trees have fizzled this year because we had such a late freeze. xoxo
