Lilac bushes - catch up May 17th

Spring came late this year. But I was able to catch the first lilac bloom.

The white lilac tree is hanging in there.  It has a good amount of blossoms this year.

The lilac hedge outside of the kitchen window is in need of a trimming.  But I want to keep the height and it is taller than I am. But there is something to be said about the dried seed pods surrounding the new growth. 

The flowering crab tree was starting to bloom.

And my miniature cherry tree/bush was blooming for the first time!  I can't wait to see what it produces.

It will be nice when this finally blooms. (I bet as I write this it is in full bloom back home.)

I guess I stood corrected and there was only one small bouquet of flowers blooming. It was just enough to send out the scent to the bees. Then I left for 3 days and missed the full bloom.
