"Cherry Tulip Magnolia Blossoms"
Washington, DC - April 1998 (Click to embiggen)
Since the hibiscus was such a smash hit I thought I'd give flowers another go. One of the more pleasant smelling things in DC is the cherry trees. Which these aren't... I found out courtesy of Kenju. (And she would know!) These are actually Tulip Magnolias. (Boy is my face red!)

Those are beautiful blossoms. I love purple. Thanks for you nice comment about my sunset pic, I thought it looked like a fire in the sky too. Have a happy week!
I love cherry blossoms they give out one of the most romantic feels when strolling under them :)
Blossoms are always my favorite, any kind of blossom covered tee is like magic! It is like a vision of a fairyland. You stand under one & shake the bark & they shower over you!
Ah! How blissfully sensuous is that!
it is beautiful :D

Beautiful photo. I love the Cherry Blossoms in D.C.
There is nothing like the cherry blossom for beauty and fragrance.

That's a beautiful photo of the blossoms!
what a beautiful picture of the blossoms!
I love walking around D.C durning that time of year.
That's a beautiful shot.
The photo is beautiful, but that is a tulip magnolia tree, not cherry blossoms.
Well I'll be dipped in sh*t. That's what the botanically challenged get for relying on memory rather than research.
Oh, they are beautiful. I love the saturatation of color in this shot. It completely captivates!
Those are beautiful flowers. It must be rewarding to see them in bloom.
Thanks for visiting my other blog.
Flowers are great subjects! Must be great to see the blooms at this time of the year. Thanks for visiting :)
lovely purple blooms. :)
Love this :)
After wondering about Mid Atlantic and wondering why I would want to visit the middle of the ocean, I googled it.
It seems like you Americans cant actually decide what states are classed as Mid Atlantic.
I get all the comments on my blog via email, so yes I got yours and thank you for taking the time to leave such an interesting take on it. It makes sense, but its seeing sense that's the problem with me :)
that is one swell picture! I love those kind of flowers. And the colors.
And I'm gushing...but it's just really nice.
It's beautiful..and you captured them so well..
