Cherries get all the love, but is that fair? A relative of the rose, the genus Malus, which contains the apple tree and crabapples, puts on quite the springtime show, too. And don’t even get me started on Syringa, aka lilacs, which should be popping into their fragrant, purple glory at any minute! Spring, it’s a many splendored thing! What is your favorite spring flower? ~AR
