It survived

We iced the tree in January.


Felt certain that we had let too much ice build on the branches.

And then spring has sprung, the bare tree actually showed it's color!


and bloomed happily!

I am so pleased that your pretty tree survived the frost.
I have been looking at the damage in my own garden & I have lost some lovely shrubs/trees through the hard winter.

Love your photos.

Nuts in May

What a beautiful tree. Did you ice it on purpose?

The ice actually protects it from getting colder. Is that a pear tree? If so it is amazing that the branches didn't snap. I love the photos.

They're quite the survivors, aren't they? Gotta love the strength of trees.
