Looks like the tree is very iconic for your area. He will be a sign to everyone when a season is coming to an end or is about to begin. Bare, lush with leaves or full of flowers is news for everyone to get ready.
Of course everyone will be waiting for the signs he likes the most and it will be very beautiful when flower buds appear, flowers bloom everywhere and the sound of birds calling you to leave the house.
Be careful, Mr. @tattoodjay. You have to be aware of your allergy triggers. Is it incurable?
yes it is a tree that one could say is iconic, and I do agree most love to see various signs of spring
as for my Allergies its not to bad I can cope with them :)
Glad to hear that you can still work things out.
I hope you are always healthy to enjoy the beauty of the changing seasons.
