This is my second one...it has a sort of honeysuckle scent ...a light scent. This a shrubby type plant. I have a pic of the whole thing but the file is too big even when I resize....hmmm

The top one is NOT a wisteria. It is a honey locust. Give me a minute and I'll remember the botanical name.

Oh, yeah! Robinia!Probably pseudoacacia.

Thank Kelly, I was looking at my tree book and change my mind. :oops: I'm still looking for the yellow one. It appears to look like a Tecoma stans?

Maybe that's why honey always pops into my head when I walk by the first one! :lol:

They are all over down here but there is one area that has a cluster of them and I love walking through there...so glad that is where I find a lot of my birds! :P

I don't know what the second one is, but that first one is honey locust. I LOVE those trees!!! There are hundreds of them around here and when they bloom, they smell sooooooooooooo good!
Which they are right now :)
