Here are a couple pictures of a white flowering dogwood in our front yard… the American Dogwood is Virginia’s official state flower and is one of the superb flowering trees of Virginia.

Also, highly recommended, Bob George has affordable prints of his great painting of a pink dogwood bracts available (see below). The pink dogwood is the perfect painting for a little girl’s room. Please contact the artist for details.
While we escaped major the major ice that hit other areas of the country during the Groundhog Day 2011 Blizzard and Ice Storm, we did pick up about 1/8th inch of ice glaze on the trees here in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Northern Virginia.
Today marked the second morning in a row of ice on our dogwood tree, only this time it was regular clear ice, not white rime.

Here’s a watercolor painting of a dogwood in the fall. My wife and I have been working on the website for Bob George Illustrations lately. Watercolors, line art, and acrylic paintings are available depicting the wildflowers of Tennessee and Virginia, as well as historic cabins and other scenes from Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Notecards, prints, and originals are available.
Here are a couple additional pictures from last night’s snow event.
