A very pretty blossom, nice job on the white detail in the petals and an interesting angle.

Ah yes, the classic southern Magnolia --- although they will grow just find further north, too, as the BBG can attest to.... Nice find!!

Thanks Cher, the trees are loaded, and bloom over a period of weeks, so we can truly enjoy them for a long time.

Sonja, it seems that we in this area, are blessed with the way the trees perform for us. They are much loved, needles to say.

Fiz, the Mags are truly a remarkable tree. Their range of adaption is remarkable known and amusing. It seems regardless of what may be thrown at them, they just live on and give their beauty year after year. We are truly blessed to have so many of them here, and the trees get so huge , blooming from top to bottom.
