Can you name all of them?
Some of the trees that keep me company through the year.
I'll give'r a stab: Locust, cherry, dogwood, magnolia?, redbud.
Aspens and willow and hazelnuts are all that is flowering here now. Probably some silver maple and red maple and witch hazel out south of here, not quite warm enough up here for maple yet. Be out in May here. Basswood don't flower until July here. Apples and plums will be out in late May and early June. We usually get a first week of June frost. Didn't get one last June, a rare thing.
Really close SD, great choice.
The first is black locust. Honey locust also blooms about the same time but not near as pretty.
Second is choke cherry.
Dogwood
Sassafras
Redbud
We have black locust up here planted around towns. Bristly locust was planted a lot around rural houses. Bristly locust is not very frost hardy up here, but black locust seems to thrive where it's planted. None seem to escape into the woods, black locust may seed around towns or river banks.
