Renfrew-Collingwood

The other 3 Favourite pins are also in full bloom.
Along 22nd, from Rupert to Windermere, and another stretch between Renfrew to Nanaimo.

Along 24th from Windermere towards Nootka.

Along 27th from Nootka towards the East.

 

Ukon at 15th and Nootka are in bloom. Favourite pin ID 1769.

There's a nice relatively new row of Kanzans on Nootka at the intersection of 15th too. Give them a few years and they will get bigger.

 

Yong, is it only in the photo that the leaves on the closest tree look more purple than the others? See @Anne Eng's posting of 'Royal Burgundy' at VanDusen posted at https://forums.botanicalgarden.ubc.ca/threads/shaughnessy.36222/page-11#post-436926.

 

Think it's the lighting as it looked more copper than the ones spotted in White Rock. But i'll double check!

 

'Ama-no-gawa' on the east side of Nanaimo, south of E. 29 has passed peak bloom at May 2, 2023. Looking very vigorous and fastigiate.

 

The two 'Shogetsu' trees on the east side of Wales, south of Kingsway (Norquay Park) are in young and splendid full bloom at May 3, 2023.

 

Double checked and it's the lighting. They aren't purple :)

 

Unable to find this Shogetsu. There's a dead-looking cherry tree in the house though so that might be the Shogetsu unfortunately ID.3184

 

Shirofugen at Rupert and Broadway are at the special timing where you can see every colour of the different phases haha.. convenient location too near skytrain
