After the Cherry Blossoms

The cherry blossoms peaked probably about the first of April this year. But more trees have been and are in flower.

About a week ago, I noticed that the serviceberry trees near the Kennedy Center were in full flower:


 On our street, and in many places around town, the eastern redbuds are in flower:


And the dogwoods are not yet at their peak:


On Saturday I noticed a virburnum in flower near the Potomac above Reagan National Airport. The one in our yard looks to be about a week from flowering.

    The weekend prior to this post, we visited the National Arboretum for the first time in four or so years (the Koi are still not returned, sadly). We didn't consider cherry blossoms, but cherry blossoms in full bloom we found. There is a lovely glade on the way in to the main area / structure that was very pleasant to stroll through. Some photos,
