New Street Trees Springing to Life

Tree Hugger Assistants

 Several of the most recently planted street trees by the Newburyport Tree Commission are just starting to bloom now. My assistant tree huggers, recently furloughed from their volunteer positions at Anna Jaques and Avita enjoyed getting out of the house for a ride around town.

A Japanese Lilac on Garnet Street beginning to sprout.

Magnolia at the triangle in front of Famous Pizza.

This Sergeant Cherry on School Street should be gorgeous in a few more days.

Japanese Lilac on Bromfield should be beautiful, although this variety is one of the last to bloom each year.

Purchase Street residents should enjoy the scent of the white blossoms on this Japanese Lilac by Memorial  Day.
