Walnut Trees have some beautiful blossoms in the springtime.
There are lots of Walnut trees along certain neighborhoods in this area of San Rafael. They are used for ornamental purposes, since they never grow very tall.
The blossom looks quite a bit like Wisteria.
Clusters of bright purple flowers that hang down like jewelry. The Hummingbirds and Bluebirds like them.
Love walnuts as much as I love pecans.
Never heard of purple flowering walnut...
