Crabapples

I planted five crabapple trees last February to attract pollinators.  Four of them are blooming right now, and the fifth is setting buds.

'Royalty'

Dark pink blooms, purple foliage 

 'Robinson'

Light pink, almost lavender blooms; green foliage with blush on new growth

 'Prairie Fire'

Hot pink blooms, green foliage with blush to new growth

'Profusion'

Other pictures from around the yard today...

 'Chanticleer' Pear

Heavy blooming ornamental pear with red to purple fall foliage

 'Lynwood Gold' Forsythia

A little past bloom, but still beautiful!

Part of the little stone path I built around the pear tree with larkspur to the right, nandina in the back, oregano and red yucca in the foreground.  This is where the dogs turn around while making laps around the yard, so I finally decided to build the path to try to protect the soil and the larkspur growing beneath.

Also, there are little tiny peaches that have set.  The biggest ones are only about a quarter of an inch, but if we can avoid a late freeze, we'll have peaches for the first time in three years!!!
