Spring, Passover, and Easter are upon us and spring blossoms are glorious in Greensboro this year. The above pink dogwood tree is in full bloom on Ridgeway Drive. The dogwood is associated with Easter because some believe wood from the dogwood tree was used in the crucifixion of Christ. It is an incredibly hard wood and the blossoms are hardy, too. Giving the Christian symbolism and the sheer beauty of the blooms, the trees make a glorious backdrop for family Easter photos. Do children still get dress clothes for Easter?
For those who celebrate, we hope that Easter 2019 was everything you'd hoped for. And for those who love the holiday, you have the opportunity to celebrate it again next week as April 28th (next Sunday) is Orthodox Easter.
Quite pretty.
