Photo du Jour - Mimosa


February is when the little, golden, pom-pom flowers burst into bloom on the mimosa trees. Pin It

Not up here... hélas. But we do have forsythia that's starting to bloom!

Jennifer said...

Sorry to hear that...but you have crocus, non? Any daffodils or tulips yet?
I love forsythia! We used to have it in our yard where I grew up.

Those are beautiful! I do not think we have those here in Key West. Lovely!

winedeb,
It is probably too humid in Key West for mimosa.
You have so many beautiful flowers there that won't grow here! I miss the big elephant ears and banana trees in New Orleans. Do those grow there?

And they smell so wonderful! Our neighbor's huge tree hangs over the wall just outside our bedroom window!

Katie,
Oh, you're lucky! They smell so amazing. I would love to have that scent drifting into our bedroom.
