Flowering Trees in Tingshu’s Garden

The superstars of spring

I am Tingshu Hu from Dunstable , Massachusetts ( Zone 5b ) . I would like to share some impression of my flowering trees in my front yard .

We came across this ‘ Pink Cascade ’ weep peach(Prunus persica‘Pink Cascade ’ , Zones 5–9 ) in a garden center . It had one flower and two bud . The flower was very attractive , so we take it home . We did n’t expect it to develop into such a gorgeous tree diagram . It blooms for more than two weeks , from late April to mid May .

In this view of the front one thousand from between the flower branch of the peach tree , you’re able to see our Havanese blackguard , Luke , await at the garden gate .

In the side yard , theForsythia(Zones 5–8 ) , blossom quince(Chaenomeles , Zones 4–8 ) , and ‘ Jane ’ magnolia(Magnolia‘Jane ’ , Zones 4–8 ) are in full peak .

Eastern redbud(Cercis canadensis , Zones 4–9 ) is another gorgeous tree with a long blossoming period . It blooms from early May for about two weeks .

Looking toward the side yard from below the branches of the redbud , you’re able to see the pink / red crabapple(Malussp . , Zones 3–8 ) that is an materialisation of a ‘ Prairie Fire ’ wild apple in the backyard . It bears some similarity with its female parent but is not the same . The white one in the heart is ‘ Sugar Tyme ’ crabapple ( Zones 4–8 ) , and the pinkish one is ‘ Louisa ’ weeping crabapple ( Zones 4–8 ) .

The same trees from a unlike angle

Another angle from below the redbud tree diagram . On the right side is lilac(Syringa vulgaris‘Beauty of Moscow ’ , Zones 3–7 ) .
