Sweet Locust Blossom: A time of spring transplanting



2012-04-07 - 922 Russell Road, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener.
Soon the low tables will be all filled with flowers, shrubs, herbs and plants. Columbia Landscape and Nursery was open this morning, Saturday, April 07, 2012 in a scene dominated by the huge locust in full bloom behind the greenhouses. Suzanne Ince, who was in charge today and was moving the plants into sales areas. Already, the store has cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower plants ready to go. Funny, there's never been a town wide move to plant more locust trees, and maybe they aren't needed. But all the rest of the flowering trees, strive as they may, never put on the dazzling show locusts do when they bloom as they did this year. And they come with a special added bonus: a delightful fragrance. Someone ought to bottle it and sell it.
