LATE BLOOMERS
May was an unusually warm month in Los Angeles, but it was an unusually cool month in Santa Monica, which may explain why the city’s Jacaranda trees did not bloom until June. The trees shown here are on 21st Street, just south of Wilshire, and they are always the first to burst forth. The photo was shot Monday afternoon, June 4.
