I was out of town and was surprise to see the crepe myrtle starting to bloom so early when I came back. Since then I've been watching some in my neighborhood and they are really getting to be spectacular. Then I got on the computer and there were some search hits for my crepe myrtle pictures from last year. They were looking for different colors. I guess its time to get the camera out and to get some fresh photos. So here are a few of the images to share taken about a week ago.
These I took while I was walking. I just love the colors I see in them - they're all so different and changing all the time. Here's some lovely pink ones.

I was trying to get the bee but it started to fly off before I could get a good photo of it.

I always love this tree. A couple day ago it was even more spectacular than this. It's still nice to see and I love the street name its growing by so its worth including the image.
These are my all time favorites and that's because they are growing in my back yard and I get to see them as they grow. These were taken on 6-10-12 The color is called Party Pink. It starts out light pink to purple and then changes to more purple with time.

That's it for now - if there's more interest in them then I'll get more as the season progresses and there's more different color trees blooming.
I muse: Since they are starting to bloom so early this year - I wonder how long I'll have them blooming?
