Today's Flowers

Some photos mainly from yesterday, when I visited the historic Dyckman Farmhouse here in Inwood.
I am puzzled by this flower above...and don't know what it is....

the tulips have just been magnificent!

a pretty window box from up the road here at Inwood....
I love these purple ones!

and I don't know whether this pink flower above is a tulip also?





Another white one above that I know not the name of....
But I think that next white one is a dogwood?
bluebells?
unknown above...and below....
but just gorgeous....

The first white one is a Flowering Crabapple Tree.

The pink one is a Tulip (maybe Apricot Beauty)

After the Tulips you have a Redbud Tree (pink), a Burkwood Viburnum (white), Dogwood Tree, Bluebells, Allium (purple) and a Lilac.

Oh you just have such spectacular flowers and such a good variety, it's always like taking a walk through a wonderful flower garden when I visit here!
I believe the second last flower is the Allium... the round purple ones.

Why, thank you all so much, you have been so helpful, knowing what the names are for me! It is so nice to have a name to put to a plant. Thank you all! They are all so wonderful at this time of year, aren't they? I am so glad my daughter encouraged me to "come over for the Spring, Mum'
