Not all early spring blooming trees are regarded as ornamental, such as red maples or birches, but still their flowers provide visual interest and some color. Large shrubs that have a tree-like form also provide excellent early spring flower color.
Well-known bulbs are Tulips, Daffodils, Crocuses, Hyacinths and Alliums. Spring flowering bulbs have in common that they need to be planted some 3-4 weeks before the frost is in the ground. They need the cold season to start their biological clock. Hence in general spring flowering bulbs will grow in climate zones 4-8.
