My personal favorite is the myrtle crepe tree.. We used to have a row of them on our lane in our previous home, !3 to be exact many of them were planted by me. Here I have no space to plant them. I wish I could. We had pink, purple and white .. I guess there is a red variety too,. We don't have them where I live, Which is your favorite tree?

I hate having to pick one. I love the weeping willows, but I also love the flowering dogwoods. I guess since I have to pick one, I will go with the weeping willow. There is just something mystical and mysterious about it.

@TexanTornado I like weeping willows but I like dogwoods better.. from what I have seen of them in pictures. Those flowers look absolutely stunning .. I wish we could have them here.

@sofssu Yes, the dogwoods can be quite breathtaking at times. I prefer the white ones over the pink.

I think this is an Acacia tree. Looks like it so it should be. :D
Yes, my favorite is the Acacia tree. I love how when they are really big the branches spread out and look really awesome!

@sofssu Thanks! I like taking pics of them when I get the chance. @cahaya1983 I know right? We have a lot of these trees in different places and they make any place look so relaxing.

My favorite is the crepe myrtle as well. I have one in my yard, although I didn't plant it. It came with the house!

@sacmom I love the purple better than the pink we have here.. I love pale pinks but most of the ones here are deep pinks.

I like sugar maples, because they produce the most beautiful foliage in the Autumn. And maple sugar, too.

Oaks and magnolias.. I love magnolias.. I love the heavenly perfume. I wish I could have one here.. I looked up the price locally and almost fainted.. Man I could buy myself a good outfit with that kind of money.

I really love the cherry blossom tree, but they don't really grow here in my country. There's one type of tree that looks pretty much like cherry blossom though, it's called pink tabebuia.

@cahaya1983 I like the cherry blossom as well it doesn't grow in my country as well. I love the pink tabebuia, I don't care too much for the yellow ones though. Our university was filled with those trees.
