Ahh yes, bradford pear bloom time is upon us. Such a DISTINCT smell.

I know this is kind of a plug, but my last post was taken at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden and my wife and I have been going there on the reg for years.

This peach blossom across the street from me has me all swoony, but Church Hill has a nice variety of magnolia, cherry and others. Lewis Ginter is always safe bet, I'm looking forward to finding more and more. Reminder everyone, all those trees looking fluffier than a week or two ago are about to release the great pollening so anti-histamine up.

There's maybe one or two other posts with some more potential options.

Maymont, downhill from the mansion and the Italian gardens are my favorite trees, the deciduous star magnolias. So pretty and blooming now!
