Alert “06880” reader Fred Cantor sends along a photo — and some comments and questions.
Fred says:
I remembered this spectacular tree from last year, on Clapboard Hill Road near Maple Avenue. My wife Debbie and I drove by yesterday afternoon to see if the spring blossoms are still as stunning this year. My photo doesn’t do it justice, but I think “06880” readers will get a sense of how magical this tree is.
Does anyone know what kind of tree it is? It looks like a weeping willow. but I have never seen one with blossoms like these. And I have never seen another tree quite like it elsewhere in Westport.
“06880” readers: help Fred!
And no, this is NOT a tree that is planned to be cut down.
We hope.
