It’s No Joke: Crocuses in Full Bloom Corner of Maple and Putnam Ave

It’s April 1, but this no gag. The crocus have suddenly blossomed at the intersection of Maple Ave, Putnam Ave and Milbank Ave. The colors are a range of purples and yellows, with some variegated ones mixed in.

On the opposite corner of Maple Ave is a display of thousands of American flags to commemorate the 6,800 lives lost in Afghanistan and Iraq. It’s quite striking even if you drive by quickly, but worth parking nearby and taking a walk and stopping to reflect.
