Spring Fresh: Popcorn Tree

This is my popcorn tree. Every spring we drive past it and it reminds me of popcorn on branches!

The popcorn is actually bunches of flowers and they are gorgeous!

Another look at them.

How are the blossom where you are?

Chiropractic Door

Behold the Chiropractic Door. Well, the door isn’t a chiropractor, obviously. But believe it or not, this place is actually a Chiropractic Centre.

But first let’s take a closer look at that door. Isn’t that grand? That’s where the patients walk through to look after their wellbeing.

Now here’s a shot of that building on Heigham St. This place is actually the Dolphin Inn, which was formerly the palace of Bishop Joseph Hall (b. 1574, d. 1656). He was the Bishop of Norwich from 1644 until 1647, when he was forced to retire after his cathedral had been pillaged and desecrated.

Here’s a look from the expansive parking lot.

And here’s from the other side of the building. Impressive, eh?

So do you see a chiropractor? Have you ever been?

Nothing says spring is here like tulips.

Spring Fresh: Forget-me-nots

These are the cutest little baby blue flowers!

Here’s a closer look. Can anyone tell me what they’re called?

PS – Thanks to TOG, I confirmed what I thought they were!  Forget-me-nots!  I bought a packet of seeds last year to plant them in our garden.  I wonder where they are.  At any rate, I should be able to get another pack and other bulbs and seeds when I visit Keukenhof Gardens this spring!
