Magnolia Stellata

My Garden

My Magnolia Stellata is flowering approximately two weeks early this Spring and is
absolutely stunning at the moment. As I walk downstairs in the mornings, I can enjoy
the flowers through the arched window and when I am outside, I can enjoy the
wonderful scent of the blooms. About five years ago the weather was all wrong
and we only had about three flowers on it! I was very concerned that there was
something wrong with the tree, but luckily the next year it was covered in blooms
and it has been each year since. It is a very special tree!

Wow, that´s just wonderful! It´s too cold here for Magnolias outdoors.

Such a beautiful tree! I have wondered what they were called ~ thanks for providing the title! V
