I have been admiring the flowering Magnolia's lately and as I drove past this speciman today I had to stop to capture it's beauty .. It is covered in bloom and look spectacular against the lovely vlla that I always admire as well ...

What a beautiful villa - as well as the magnolia of course! There is a sign at the corner which may indicate the history of this house!

@maggiemae No it is very near the CBD and it is now an Insurance office .. such a waste ..

Your real NZ villas are so beautiful....love them loads more that the modern brick ones going up in so many places....a wooden house is NZ in my opinion! Probably warmer in a modern one but not half as nice! The magnolia is a stunner!
