Close cousin of the magnolia. Flowers are only about 4 cms across. In our front garden. Still raining, so no more opportunity to photograph my 'black' tulips.

@cazann Thanks Caz - not sure actually if it is scented. We've had a few days of rain, cleared up this evening, so I'll pop out in the morning and check.
