Sometimes, trees give flowers a run for their money in the beauty department.
Before I moved North, I had never seen a flowering tree. Since then, I have seen all kinds of beautiful trees, from cherry blossoms in DC, to trees in Puerto Rico I can’t even put a name to. Trees are awesome because they clean the air and provide shade, but people often forget that some of them are pretty nice to look at, too. These five trees are probably the most beautiful in the world, and unlike flowers, they seem to only get more beautiful with age.
