Crab Apple Landscape

Its that time of year here in my town - the crab apple trees are blooming wildly!  They look like white clouds - or sometimes pink clouds.  The one in my front yard is definitely white, though! 
And they smell wonderful!  
They don't last long, though - soon the blooms are all on the ground looking like snow.  But the pleasure of their beauty is wonderful for about a week!
