2017 Elderberry blossoms here at the Ranch.

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

The air is a waft with the sweet smell of the Elderberry blossoms! Elderberries are in the honeysuckle family, giving their blossoms that fragrant sweetness. When in bloom is the only time Elderberry plants smell good, the rest of the time their rather stinky.

Here some photo’s I took the other day of this year’s bloom. It was fun except for the pesky deer fly’s we are plagued with this time of the year at the Ranch.
