Amazing shots. I hadn't seen a pussy willow in years until a couple of weeks ago and now I'm seeing one here. I'm thinking of planting one in the back yard.
they are just as beautiful past their prime as they are in their prime. i just came in from the back yard, we had blessed rain yesterday and this morning the flowers have gone berserk. the first bloom this year on the dwarf poinciana, it was a dead stick a week ago and now has 6 new blooms.
I must say I am not familiar with these. They are beautiful in their pass their prime stage, I am off to google theses and see what they look like in their prime.

ReplyDeleteWell they did not last to long. Beautiful pics as usual. B
ReplyDeleteThey're still pretty!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Love the texture!
ReplyDeleteThey are pretty even if they've gone to seed...nobody says that I am pretty, but they do say I've gone to seed. That is not very nice.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Really beautiful.
ReplyDeletesuch lovely photos! Some of our pussy willows are done too, though some are still smooth and furry
ReplyDeleteThese are different than any other I have ever seen.
ReplyDeleteThey may be past their prime, but they are still pretty.

ReplyDeleteOne of my favourite sights, pussy willow:-)
ReplyDeleteI usually buy a few pussy willow branches from our local florist in the spring - wonder if I missed them.
