The mountain laurels have been in bloom 'round Austin for the past 2 or 3 weeks. I love the way they smell. It's been so pleasant arriving at work over the last couple of weeks. I get to the garage, park, open my door, and ahhhhhh... the sweet smell of the blossoms wash over me. There are quite a few mountain laurels planted all around the garage. This is one of the last ones that's still in full bloom. The first ones I noticed have lost almost all of their petals. I just love the fact that the landscapers planted these heavenly plants so near my place of work. Thanks!
