We have had a beautiful spring and the redbuds have been glorious! And here is where I google "redbud" to include a link with information about the trees and find their scientific name is cercis canadensis. Canadensis means 'of Canada', so...interesting, but probably not super blogworthy. Cercis, however, comes the Greek 'kerkis' which means "a weaver's shuttle" because of the shape of their fruit/seed pods! That just made my day :-). There are six new spring puzzles :-).
