It almost looks like a carpet, they are so tightly packed in.

Redbud. Almost finished blooming. They are just starting here in southern Ohio.

Judas tree, or European redbud.

What have medieval cities come to when they've abandoned their gates and drawbridges--not to mention their moats filled with crocodiles? I bet they don't even pour boiling oil on cyclists who try to climb the walls. Those are the kinds of things that make a bike tour even more adventurous than usual.

Not enough information. Go back to the first one and take a photo of the tree.

Same petals on the ground as before, so maybe the first time was also not a Jacaranda?

This isn’t a jacaranda though. Some kind of flowering plum maybe?

Hey, I’m impressed at myself that I remembered this word. This is a dehesa (in Spain), or a montado (in Portugal).

You see a lot of this in the spring in northern Sicily.
