Happy did you spot either of these two trees while you were walking? The first is the tree than the bloom of one at the zoo...I was doing the same-walking around thinking what is that scent? It certainly wasn't the elephants. I swore it was a flower's scent wafting....than I realized it was the trees!!! 2nd tree was one I noticed in bloom along the woods by a school - not as strong as a scent but pleasant when up close to it....actually the 2nd may be a shrub for all I know.

Speaking of fragrance....check out my 'Shooting Star' gardenia in full bloom! Talk about scent....whaaa whoooo!!! Got her as an infant the year before Flower Scent Garden closed up shop.....just LOOK at her now!!
