Had planned to get some photos of dogwoods today but did not make it that far. Took Nicky to his friend's house for a run before the next round of rain and did manage to take a few shots of the wisteria which grows like weeds here. Lighting was poor, but think they will show up.

saw a wisteria growing in Denver once, thought it was just gorgeous and just
recently found out it also grows in Arizona, I think its beautiful but I wouldn't
be able to keep up with it growing like a weed. Love those pictures, and of
course the dogwoods are beautiful too.

Ah...your pictures brought a smile to my face! Spring has arrived. Now if only the dang rain would stop so we can get outside and do something!

That is beautiful, I love wisteria but then we don't have any to take care of, then I might feel different. Sort of like the deers were so cute at first then after they eat all your flowers and garden for awhile they somehow aren't nearly so adorable.

the wisteria is so delicate looking. Does it have a scent?

I love Wisteria !!! Its one of my favorite fragrances, but so hard to find, flea markets used to have the oils, but can't even find them anymore. The plant is really pretty, thanks for posting the pic of it. I would love to be there and smell it !!!

My neighbor's home has wisteria growning next to the house, and it's beautiful, and smells soooo nice BUT it grows like a weed and he has chopped it backed almost to the ground and within a few weeks it's up and going again!!
