Unusual way of blooming

I didn't know what kind of tree this was, but I was fascinated by how it blooms (thanks to Nirvan for the ID, an eastern redbud). Taken while on a walk with Sahraa, who is always unhappy when I stop to take a picture.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

Formerly a church, now ‘Little Red Chapel’ townhouses, posted earlier:

The photographer's curse, a travelling companion that doesn't appreciate landscape as we do!

Never seen this before. Very nice way of blooming and a nice shot of it.

Looks like a very pretty tree. I'd never heard of a Redbud. I agree with Gill. It would be interesting to see what it looks like an a couple of weeks! V
Gill Kopy21-Apr-2020 04:19
How odd the blossoms seem to coming right from the trunks. Another shot in a few weeks would be interesting :) V

A beautiful tree, so nicely photographed. It just seem so odd those blossoms that
appear to be sprouting from the trunk.

certainly an unusual spacing of blossoms...maybe it is a Measles Tree..
