Me, too! For me, cherry blossoms don't even come close. |

WE grew up with a weeping cherry in our front yard. In the spring, the branches would droop down and create sort of a tent/tunnel through which we could ride our bikes and big wheels on the walkway. I have such fond memories of that weeping cherry tree!
Here is a pic if someone doesn't know what one looks like: http://www.ask.com/explore/all-about-weeping-cherry-trees |

| What are the trees called that currently have the purple flowers? Are those Jacarandas? I think they look a little different from OP's picture but maybe that picture is just an awesome one. |

That's a redbud.

| Dogwoods and pink magnolias. <3 I've lived in two places with dogwoods right outside my window. |

Too many to choose from. I love them all. And I love how they all bloom at different times so that spring is just a constant procession of gorgeousness.
