Another pretty sidewalk block. I don't think there are any surreptitious dog butts in there!
#Photography #SeattleWashington #SeattleSpring #BloomScroll #SeattleSpring

A view down a Seattle neighborhood sidewalk shows the care some gardeners put into their floral displays. On the house side, there are walls and other borders full of tulips, scilla, and other colorful flowers. The yards have birch trees, maples, apples, and many shrubs. On the street side, red Japanese maples of various sizes, green grass strips, and small shrubs enclosed the view.

Petal strewn sidewalk
#SeattleWashington #SeattleSpring #MapleLeafNeighborhood #BloomScroll

A sidewalk in my neighborhood is covered with pink crabapple petals after a wind storm. Pink flowering crabapple trees bend over the sidewalk from curbside strips. You can see blue scilla growing on both sides as well as bright tulips and other spring flowers.

Blueberries to be! This is one of our 5 highbush blueberries. They produce tons of berries, which we let the neighborhood kids pick
( there aren't very many kids in our neighborhood, they keep moving to bigger houses!).
#Photography #SeattleWashington #SeattleSpring #OurGarden #BloomScroll

A cluster of blueberry flowers dangle from the stem of a bush. The flowers look like pink and white urns. Their stems are bright pink. The leaves on the blueberry bush are golden-green with a red flush on the edges.

Evergreen huckleberries (Vaccinium ovatum) are blooming. This hardy native is evergreen, and used by wise people for hedges. Its blue huckleberries are very small but usually abundant, and tasty!
#Photography #SeattleWashington #SeattleSpring #BloomScroll #NativePlants

White and pink bell shaped flowers cluster along branches covered with smal,l oval, dentate dark-green leaves. The flowers will become little blue huckleberries in fall.

Up close and personal with my orchid since the buds on the trees outside are only now coming out and are so teeny tiny!

Flowering quince on lichen and moss covered shrubs.

#SeattleWashington #Photography #MapleLeafPark #SeattleSpring #BloomScroll

I reached into one and it bit me.

Some coral red blossoms on a flowering quince share branches with some different lichens and moss. The lichens are fruticose and sage green (reindeer lichen?), gray and foliose, and yellow and crustose. The flowers are bright and cheery, mostly partially opened, with 5 petals and yellow stamens poking out.

Honey scented tall Oregon grape is in bloom all over the park. Everything this spring is blooming like mad!
#Photography #SeattleWashington #SeattleSpring #RavennaPark #BloomScroll

A branch of Oregon grape pokes between two shaded mossy fence rails. The branch has a few racemes of small bright yellow cup like flowers. The dark leaves on the branch look a bit like holly, with prickly edges. A ray of sunshine strikes the leaves, leaving shadows on the bottom rail.

Would you like to fly in my beautiful balloon? A saucer magnolia tree has branches clear down to the ground. The magnolias a really full of flowers this year.
#Photography #SeattleWashington #SeattleSpring #BloomScroll

A magnolia tree with branches bending down to the ground is covered with pink and white flowers. The blossoms are barely open and look like little hot air balloons rising from the ground into the air.

The greens of spring are always great: Japanese maple deploying its leaves
#Photography #SeattleWashington #SeattleSpring #BloomScroll #GreenColors

Japanese maples leaves deploy in a garden. The palmate leaves start out red, and as the spread open, the greens start as chartreuse, with red edges, and then a more tender green as they age, and stronger greens as they get ready to photosynthesize for the season. In this photo the young red rimmed leaves fan out at the top, then the greener leaves swirl below, and you can see older leaves lower towards the ground.

Amelanchier x grandiflora, downy serviceberry, has beautiful pink to white flowers and downy sage colored stems. It's a lovely, unusual looking small street tree which has a showy display of vivid colors in fall.
