Flower Photo: Styrax Tree Blossoms

Styrax Snowbell Flowers Photo By Aquariann

For years, I've worked just feet from where this beautiful tree blossoms, and just found out yesterday that it's a Styrax Japonicus. Its common name is a snowbell tree, which is perfect because the petals were falling gently to the ground like snow while I was photographing the wonderful white flowers.

How To Plant Your Own Post for Flower Friday:
The only rule to play is that you can only add one link per week! The post doesn't even have to mention flowers, but only ones that do will be eligible for being picked as a feature next week. I will be sharing my flower image on other blog hops, namely Wordless Wednesday, and welcome all family-friendly links from fellow bloggers. Crafters can even link up an Etsy listing or other shop product! But if you want to promote a prize, please add it to my Giveaway Chest Linky instead to entice more treasure hunters.

Please follow my blog through any of the social media icons in the upper right sidebar to receive a reminder to return next week. Adding my button or a text link to your own blog and sharing to your followers is also a fairy appreciated way to help my hop grow.

Flower Friday


Other flower hops where I've planted my post this week include Floral Friday Fotos, I Heart Macro, Make My Saturday Sweet, My Weekend Flower, Saturday Show Off and Today's Flower.

Michelle of WireQueen is bequeathing a beautiful pair of clear quartz earrings to one of my readers. The design is named "Midwife Healer" in honor of the midwife that delivered her second daughter.
