Clematis montana ( photo / image / picture from Gardengirl's Garden )
This clematis is beautiful this year, scrambling right up into the trees.
Laburnum ( photo / image / picture from Gardengirl's Garden )
Our Laburnum is full of blossom this year, looks lovely when viewed from underneath the tree.
Hawthorn ( photo / image / picture from Gardengirl's Garden )
Our large Hawthorn is absolutely dripping with blossom this year.

Yes Toni, I think it is. We inherited this when we moved in 1992 and it has got bigger and better each year.

Lovely pics GG. Everything is looking so colourful. I do believe the cold winter we had has made the plants work extra hard. I adore the laburnam, I have a baby in my front garden and after several years, it finally flowered this year. Gorgeous.

All three are beautiful Gardengirl but I have to say that your Laburnam is my favourite. 
I have a Hawthorn in my garden which is around 4-5 years old and it's never even had one teeny little flower on it. 
I would love to get a Clematis Montana as it would look terrific on my garden arch especially if it flowered as profusely as yours has.
