Rosie has been enjoying the warmer weather but her buds still aren’t flowering any more than a couple of weeks ago. I’ve noticed other red maples that have more stems sprouting from the buds than Rosie so maybe she isn’t in ideal soil or positioning for sunlight. She is isolated unlike most other trees around campus or the city so maybe that’s a factor. I’m guessing in the next week or two with even more sun, Rosie will be fully flowering!
