In Bloom #52 + Carolina Jessamine

On an afternoon walk, just today, I found this Yellow Jessamine (Gelsemium sempervirens) in full bloom.  It happens to be the official state flower of South Carolina, thus the name, Carolina Jessamine.  If you have driven through the Palmetto State in the spring, you may have noticed the evergreen vine with bright yellow blooms growing along the roadside climbing fences and trees.  

Wow, today marks the one year anniversary of In Bloom posts.  When I started out posting these I had no idea I would even have 52 photos worth sharing.  I think I'll keep this going.

Happy Sunday,
