Waking up to Summer

Oh, how I love the smell of blossoms blooming. It was a great feeling to wake up to beautiful weather and scents too in Mesa this morning.

Melanie has a blooming pomegranate in her back yard. A very interesting blossom. The fruit trees are in full bloom with a thick jasmine fragrance wherever you go. Wow!!

Ever seen pomegranate blossoms before?  Large hard bulb-like fruit base and a frilly flower with many stamens.  Looks like a small hibiscus flower from the front.




Pomegranate trees can get to be 15 to 30 feet tall.  This will be a good shade tree!!

Fruit tree blossoms are plentiful all over Mesa and have a sensuous jasmine scent!  Heavenly!
