Cercis canadensis (Eastern Redbud) - Gardenia.net

Noted for its showy spring flowers, Cercis canadensis (Eastern Redbud) is a deciduous, often multi-trunked tree with a graceful, rounded crown and horizontally tiered branches. Masses of pea-like rosy-pink flowers held in clusters cover the bare branches in the spring, before the foliage emerges, creating a most dramatic display.

Agave attenuata, commonly called the foxtail or lion's tail agave or the swan's neck agave, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asparagaceae (the asparaguses, agaves and yuccas). Sometimes called the soft-leaf or soft-leaved agave, the aforementioned animal-related names are a nod to the appearance of the plant's inflorescence, which—after years, generally—rises slightly before gravity brings it back down, giving the bloom a curved, "swan"-like or "foxtail" look. The species' specific manner of flowering is unique in the genus Agave as most other species produce a towering, vertical display, reminiscent of a miniature tree. Wikipedia

I was not aware of these bushes until a few years ago. Now they are one of my favorites.

Our beautiful front tree, which has to be close to 50 years old, is still gifting us with blossoms...

For "Looking close... on Friday!" - theme : "Blossoming Trees".

We have lots of this colourful and interestingly shaped plant in one of our flower beds. It's flowering much more this year.
