31 Days of Flowers: Robinson Crab

The wild winds of the last few days blasted the petals around in hot pink blizzard. Sad to see them go. Even sadder that I will be digging their blasted sprouts out pretty much forever. Not an ornamental tree I would recommend, even thought the bronzy leaves and rosy-pink flowers are delightful. Suckers madly and every one of the tiny crab apples hatches another tree.

(yep, had these queued up to post while I was out of town, and totally forgot, dang it!)
