Eastern Redbud Tree
Cercis canadensis
This small tree in the legume family showcases lovely pink blooms in spring and is native to much of eastern North America. They grow in a variety of habitats, but prefer well-drained slopes in woods without many other plants to compete with. Its flowers are pollinated by carpenter bees and other bees with long tongues, and the leaves provide food for several caterpillar and moth species. The flowers on this tree are also edible and contain beneficial anthocyanins, a group of antioxidants.

A brief but heavy spring rain hitting the redbud blossoms, didn't bother them at all.

Thinking about - THEM - (redbud trees). This is my biggest, most-effort plein air piece; it took me three painting sessions and I had very good luck in getting the same weather/light all three days. I sat on the ground to paint, looking out over the toes of my boots in the grass, and a black snake showed up to see what I was doing. He watched for a while, then left. 13x26 inches on plywood panel.
artist's recreation:
[ID: painting of a large, wide-spread Appalachian landscape in early spring, with pink trees scattered throughout the forest and the edges of the farm fields. There is a small, cartoonish black snake badly photoshopped into the foreground, with ?! written over his head.]
@kochlandhomestead Hang in there . . it'll be here soon!
[ID: close-up of farm fields surrounded by pink trees.]
