The Mountain Laurel buds have opened

Posted by unexpectedincommonhours on

On Thursday, for Dawn’s Spring Festival I posted photos of the Mountain Laurel on my property. A few of the star-like buds had opened, but now most have opened, and they are beautiful!

    How beautiful! They remind one a little of sand dollars.

    You’ve reminded me that I intended to show a photo or two of our Texas mountain laurel, which is quite different: lavender, and in the pea family. It has a wonderful, grape bubblegum fragrance. Is yours fragrant as well?

      I would love to see lavendar mountain laurel. The mountain laurel here isn’t fragrant at all.
