Almost Instant Gratification

 Last fall we cut down a Sweet Gum tree in the back yard and replaced it with a Kwanzan Cherry tree.  Sometimes you have to wait years for flowers when to bloom when planting new trees.  This one surprised us with flowers this month.  They are putting on a beautiful show and hopefully it is a foreshadowing of the years to come.  The tree seems to be very healthy and happy in it's new location.
