Cercis siliquastrum

How should i express my deep adoration to these delicate small to medium-sized ornamental lavender-pink Spring flower trees ?

These days are the best season for this lovely plant and Istanbul looks more charming with bloomed Juda trees ( the name comes from a commonly held belief that i wont mentioned it here) .

It is a native of Southern Europe, Eastern Mediterranean and Western Asia, grows also in Agean & Northwest of the country.

Once i knew a poem that i like a lot about these Trees; but could not remember how it was..

Neither its Latin name nor French nor English expresses the beauty of it more than Erguvan..
The beautiful tones of the “Erguvan” trees, unique to the Bosphorus... Try to afford an opportunity to see them these days!
