Spring is Coming, Part 2
Fruit tree in bloom
No need to explain, right? What could be more beautiful than a fruit tree in bloom on a perfect spring day? Now all we need to do is make it through the next few months. Good luck!!

One nice thing about the heavy rains here in Zone 10 this winter -- the plants are all responding by producing loads of leaves and blossoms. This apricot tree usually has about half as many blooms. But this year, it's completely over the top. Just a few more months and it'll be time to make apricot pineapple jam!

Mystery tree
This tree is flowering now here in Zone 10. There are tons of blossoms but very little foliage. The few leaves it does have look like they're from a ficus tree. Not much scent. Any ideas about what it might be? I'm thinking ornamental fruit tree -- but which one?
