You have the same colour magnolia as us. Ours is absolutely loaded with flowers after last years frost damage! How long they’ll last though I don’t know, because we have frost & snow again just now! Lovely shot.
It’s a lovely colour though! Our magnolias have been outstanding this Spring…the frost will have got a few last night though! Lack of moisture in Texas perhaps! I was reading a bit about Texas the other day & how it was an independent state or country for ten years…very interesting it was too,
Lovely magnolia bloom and beautiful light.
In my yard, I'm wondering if the freeze we had in 2021, followed by a brutally hot summer, combined to stress the plants as some of them look a little peaked this spring.
Nature has some really fascinating ways of coping with the weather and while we worry it just keeps going. It sounds like your magnolia is giving itself a rest and when the moisture comes back it will too. It's still got some pretty blossoms though. Nice shot.
@happypat we are proud of our history for sure. @eudora so many of our friends are having to replace landscaping, the weather the last couple of years has been brutal.
