Franklin North Carolina Spring Time and the Mountains are blooming
In the Mountains of Franklin, NC Spring Time is awakening the mountains and they are blooming all over. It's a special time of the year when the tree's have been doormat all winter and now are ready for new growth.
I have never seen so many colors of green before as I do here in the Nantahala Forest in NC. I say this every year and continue to be awed by the mountains when they bloom. Here is more about Spring Time in Franklin, NC and the dogwood trees.
I learned early on over 20 years ago not to plant flowers until the beginning of May but when we have everything blooming around us in the mountains its hard not to go and buy this years array of colors. We have what is called Blackberry or a Dogwood winter and true to its name we have had Freeze warnings this week and its very cold mornings. They are short cold snaps. It will fool you when the afternoons reach into the high 70s at times and you think winter is over.
If you have never visited the NC mountains during the Spring time you missing out on one of the most magnificent time of the year here. Beautiful Dogwood, Red Buds, Cherry and Willow trees are among a few of my favorites that are blooming.
