Early Bloom of Wisteria




Before we get into the Best In Show judging on Saturday at San Jose, we treat our eyes to some beautiful plants and flowers.     The early warming of temperature in California causes the plants and flowers to bloom all over.



The pink Wisterial and Bird of Paradise are having beautiful blooms.

In addition to the pink Wisteria, we also have the purple Wisteria.



These purple Wisteria are as pretty as the pink ones.



It's such a treat to our eyes when the Wisteria are in bloom.
