Well, feel a little better, knowing that other trees bloom for 3-4 weeks before they lose their blossoms!! Gracie, caught your comment on getting fuller!! LOL PaPa Larry also. I'm going to take advice about cutting off old blooms, and see what happens. I'll pull off seeds and drop them to ground for birds. I put a nice bird house out there amongst the Myrtles, for my Sally. So far no tenants. (Must be high rent district - bird house is a church) So, now put out a hang'n bird bath, to see if we attract any action!!! Don't want to put feed out there, because of rodents. Thought if they use bird bath, they will be clean, and house will be clean too!! LOL They can pay off bond, year to year
