City street trees are in bloom, (dog walk special). These shrubs and trees are popular ornamentals in Seattle. Named in alt text #Photography#SeattleSpring#StreetTrees#SeattleWashington#PNW

This hazelnut cultivar with curiously twisted branches is known as Harry Lauder's Walking Stick. I suppose it does make nuts, since I can see a few of the little red pistilled flowers on the branches, among the soon to open male catkins. It is a moderately popular ornamental in Seattle gardens.
