Some significant greening has taken place on the Sweetgum tree since the last set of pics was taken three days ago. It seems like once this tree wakes up for the season, it turns green very quickly.

The photo above is of some of the trees growing on the other side of the house. Everything on this side of the yard is waking up as well.

I started to notice a bunch of flowers getting ready to make an appearance on some of the azaleas next to the driveway.

I managed to get a good closeup of a bloom that had already opened.

This means I should be seeing a lot of azalea blooms next to the driveway in the coming weeks

The spring greening process is continuing at a rapid pace. A significant difference can be seen over a period of just a couple of days.

As things wake up for the season, the row of privacy hedges thickens.

The cherry tree is significantly more green than it was just three days ago.

The photo above is of the remnants of the cherry tree blooms. After they fall, they gather at the garage door thanks to the wind.

There are still a few nice blooms to be seen, though.

I see some new growth appearing on the leafy green bushes behind the brick wall.

The random volunteer flowers in the backyard also look nice.

I am told that these are Bluebells.

I also have several flowering trees in the yard that bloom in red in the spring.

A coworker called them redbud trees, and said that they are popular in the south. I don't recall ever seeing one growing up in Pennsylvania.

I can agree with the "popular" assessment because I am seeing them all over the neighborhood.

I appear to have several redbuds in the yard, which is nice.
