This is a variety of Dogwood that grows beside my apartment building. It is right now in bloom. I just love the color of flowers it produces and it smells lovely. Sadly, it was damaged in the ice storm, but still seems to continue to live on, even with a few branches gone. Thanks again for your prayers. Dad is healing and doing wonderful.

This tells a tale of spring where you live Ruby. We don`t get ice storms here but I`ve seen pictures and new footage and they don`t look fun! Glad to here your Dads doing well too. Good news indeed!

So glad to hear your dad is doing well and I do hope our Muggsy is healing ok also. Love the dogwood, such pretty blossoms. I'm glad you get to still enjoy them inspite of the ice storm.

Can't say I blame you for liking this color.I'd say it survived Mother Nature's pruning job just fine. Good job.

I LOVE dogwoods! We used to have them sprinkled throughout the forest our house was surrounded by in Connecticut... and I miss them... so thanks for this rather lovely image.

Very nice Ruby, have you tried to adjust your contrast on your pictures when the sun is shining so brightly?
