As it is the first day of spring today, and my trees are all either in full bud or well on the way to it, I took some photos of the colour around this morning.

Please add your photos of flower and colourful new growth as well.

Enjoy

Wow Ken, you are out early. My Wisteria are just starting to bud, let alone flower.

Haven't got any flowering trees yet (I'm working on it ) but mine are also just starting to bud. Looking good

Will have to take some snaps with my new camera

A few of my calli's flowered, looking very lovely.... then it rained the next day....

Lovely flowering trees you have Ken...
My bougies never stopped flowering the whole winter...I dont think I see them often without flowers.
I have a funny looking cotoneaster flowering with red flowers....is it common? Let me go get a picture.
Flowers are closed...or finished already.

Thanks Neli. I do like your Bougies
My white one had Brachts all winter, but this red one had none. My other really big one has not flowered at all in the pot

I have some prunus I collected a few years ago coming out now, so will update later

Some more flowers from the garden..Thanks Ken!

A few bits of early colour around here , most are Bonsai trainers. Looking forward to seeing the full colour range in the garden .

Cheers Alpineart

It's a rich life you lead, Ian, if only in colour! Thanks for posting. Your "collected street tree" looks like my seedling peach - possible?

Gavin

Hi GavinG , Mate its good to see the colour but with more heavy frosts forecast its a worry . The collected street tree is a Prunus Cerasifera Nigra , looks very similar to the peach? in the garden , grown from seed from a supermarket fruit purchase last year and flowering this year .

Cheers. Alpine

Here's a few pictures I took in my garden last week:




On my way to work:


And at the Adelaide Royal Show yesterday:
