Southern Magnolia leaves

We have two Southern Magnolia trees in our yard. I love how they stay green and vibrant throughout the winter.

I like magnolias, particularly when the big buds start to expand

It is lovely to have some intense green throughout the winter months. They are so structural too - great photo

Fabulous leaves, love the dof.

These leaves are neat against the black - nicely composed shot.

Nice POV. I have always heard that for magnolia seeds to sprout they first have to be ingested by a squirrel. Any through to that?

@chrisf So do I, those blooms are a few months away.

@randystreat Thanks! Not sure about that...we have had sprouts, but very few, if any, squirrels.
