Red Blossoms on my Maple Tree for Ruby Tuesday


Soon our driveway will be carpeted with red as the wind and rain of the next few days (which is forecasted) will spread these red blossoms from our two very old Maples which stand as sentinels beside our driveway.

They present such beauty this time of year, just wish they weren't so dirty! Lovely!

Maples put on such a lovely show in both spring and fall. These look beautiful!

Your maples are wonderful.

They look like pom poms in the second shot. We get someting here too, not even sure what kind of tree it's from, but it looks like graham cracker crust crumbs all over the place.

Ann...I have a meme called Nature Notes that you would be perfect for. It's small, but it has been very enjoyable....Michelle

I love red maples and your photos capture the beauty of the blossoms. Ours bloomed a month ago!

I missed the red maple blooms this year somehow. They are usually out around the beginning of April here. I count them as one of the earliest spring flowers.
