Are they first blooms of thhis plant ?
Look very healthy blooms!
Magnolia Alba - one whiff and I feel I’m in Hawaii. Very cheap alternative 
although it only lasts for a min (the feeling not the smell)

It’s a relatively young fruit tree, 8 years old I think, grafted onto a seedling, but this is already the fourth bloom, only this year it’s completely covered with flower buds, excessive, I’d say

Did it give fruit in past?
Yes, I am trying to find pictures, don’t know where I put it, but last year someone picked them up “for me”, leaving only a few.
Voww ! This also happens!
Orchids. Previous flowers were stayed opened for 70 days. Lets see if these will stay open that long or not.

Multiple apple cultivars bloomed this year and (crosses fingers) no serious cold in the forecast.
Wild pawpaws which we have a ton of, but so far not many have fruited.
March 20 hit 15F while peaches were in bloom, all gone… Well except for two I’ve found so far which somehow survived.
Montmorency cherry.
Last of the morels this year.

@PomGranny … we are on a little 3 day vaca in East TN… Sewanee… and hiked a trail this evening and found these pretty wild things.
Such beauty… just growing in the woods.

Nice finds. The trillium is also the emblem of Ontario.
This should be an excellent year for fruit as long as we don’t get another frost.
Pawpaw blooming
Lots of thinning to be done with Asian pears

Are you going to hand pollinate those pawpaws? If so, when do you start? I finally have two pawpaw trees with flowers, but no pollen seems to be coming off them. Your trees look great!
