The linden trees are in full bloom.
If only I could share the fragrance with you.
What's happening in your corner of the world?
Join Esha and Natasha and link up with us, won't you? Take a break from writing and share a picture or two with us. I am also linking today with image-in-ing.
Alana,
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if I've happened upon a linden tree before. After doing a bit of Internet sluething I learned that this type of tree is found in middle Tennessee and lightly else where in our state. I guess I could've seen some in Nashville while visiting and didn't know it. It has interesting blooms and I would like to smell one now. :) BTW, I sent out next week's 4M linky code yesterday. It's a lot early but I wanted to give our new honorary co-host a chance to figure out how to insert it. :) Happy almost WW!
It's possible - ours hung on so long, maybe because of our unusually cool spring - the flowers are small, but they smell so sweet and they attract the bees - or used to, when bees were common. That's a sadness I did not want to blog about.
DeleteHaving smelled them once, I can recall the aroma as I read the post.
ReplyDeleteAh, the persistence of smell in memory.
DeleteI don't know if I've ever seen one of those. Right now I'm smelling cheese. Someone's making food...
ReplyDeleteI like cheese but I would rather smell a linden.
DeleteHave your ever drunk the tea of linden trees? It is so healthy also.
ReplyDeleteI have not. This tree is so useful - and you can use the flowers for tea, too! Thank you for the information.
DeleteOh yes, i know the linden tree.
ReplyDeleteIn my city are a lot of them !
My contribution...
Thank you for visiting, Jutta!
DeleteHi Alana,
ReplyDeleteDid my comment not come through last week?
Your linden trees remind me of the mooring flowers, though the leaves are much different.
I'm always in awe of your nature pictures.
Natasha, I've published all the comments in my moderation cue. I went back and looked and I didn't receive comments from the week previous to this. Sometimes Blogger 'eats' comments, especially if they come from phones (I can't comment on Blogger blogs at all on my phone and I can't figure out why-I am signed into my account). Thank you for the attempt. I looked up moringa and it is an interesting tree indeed- it would not be hardy where I live.
