Magnolia


magnolia, originally uploaded by DanielleQ.

I planted this last week... I totally love Magnolias and they seem to grow very well in this area. I had a few once and planted them in three corners of the garden - one died straightaway, one hung on for quite awhile, and the one near the road was growing beautifully until it disappeared one day. Weirdness.

Anyhow, I have high hopes for this new magnolia, it is a Royal Crown variety and is pretty strong to begin with :)

I love this bud, all waiting and beauty.

Oh yes, I love Magnolias too! Such a pity though that they don't bloom for long. Funny thought too that your Magnolias are coming out - and we're preparing for autumn...
