🌳Top 10 Flowering Trees of Spring in the Landscape


Listen Later

Hey gardeners, Ken Lain here! Spring is bursting with color, and what better way to celebrate than with flowering trees?

 

This is the prime time to get them in the ground, so let's explore my top 10!

 

First up, we've got the long-blooming Chaste Tree, followed by the vibrant hues of Crabapples. For something native and drought-hardy, consider Desert Willow. Flowering Pears offer white blooms and stunning fall color, while Hot Wings Maple adds unique red seed pods.

 

Purple leaf plums feature deep purple foliage, while redbuds boast heart-shaped leaves and pink flowers. Magnolias thrive here, from white-flowered Saucer Magnolias to the hardy Ulta Southern Magnolia. Serviceberries offer delicate white blooms and fall color, and finally, Weeping Cherries add a touch of grace.

 

Plant these now to enjoy their beauty all season long!
