Maple Seeds, Myrtle Beach

Posted on 28 February 2018 by Isabel Gibson

The robins and cardinals are back. The cursed Bradford pear trees (more on that another day) are in bloom. Daytime temperatures that grudgingly hit 45 just last week, have soared above 70F for the last few days. Here in the South, it must be spring.

And the clincher? Maple trees are sprouting their winged seeds.

Red winged maple seeds.

    Can’t wait to see the Redbuds, too!

      Laurna – We saw the first ones in bloom on a side trip to Charleston this week. Myrtle Beach (90 miles further north) is just starting into bloom. I’m hoping that we’ll hit it right for Virginia in early April.
