Let the Blooming Begin!

With the arrival of spring and warmer weather, I have been waiting for the Crabapple tree (Mrs. Krabappel) that I planted last year to flower.

As of May 5th, there were no flowers, but the leaves were a nice bright red. 

I have been checking daily, as other trees in the neighborhood were blooming all around. I was beginning to wonder if Mrs. Krabappel would even flower this year.

However, this afternoon I discovered the first bloom. 


How exciting! It's beautiful! 

Now I will wait and see what the next few days offer. I'm hoping to see more blooms.
