What a show this year the Korean Dogwoods are putting on!

[rbtree]

For whatever reason, our mostly wet and cool year so far has created the best year for Korean dogwood in memory. Even our "Juneuary" weather (cool and wet) hasn't daunted their spirits!

Here's a slide show to color up your July 1st.

A couple more.....there were awesome dogwoods everywhere I turned my last photo outing on the only sunny day recently. Go look for my osprey pics. There are more...I can't find some of them, either on my laptop, or on the memory cards that I have with me- here in Oregon for a few days with family.

Ya, they're really nice this year.

I have a customer that I recommended Dogwood as a replacement tree. She didn't want the kind with too many flowers. I thought that was funny. She is diesel, though, but not an apparent man-hater, or anything.

Beaverton/Aloha, Willie. Headed to the Gorge and maybe the coast too boot. Wish the danged sun would reveal its welcome orb.
