Spring has been a little strange this year. According to the calendar it began on 20 March 2011... well, it sure hasn't felt like it. It felt more like winter-lite. At least it did until this week, when the temperature seems to have risen. So, the magnolia had an interesting season of blooms. I mean about 3 weeks ago there was a day where the buds were covered in snow for 24 hours...
And now the blooming season is drawing to a close, so the petals are dropping... I suppose it's like confetti.

Blossoms sure don't last very long do they? Oh but the beauty while they are here ~ wonderful!

This bloom really caught my eye this year. A lovely set of photos. It was warm here for a few days that I put on the shorts,and today have a sweater.
Gorgeous shots! It's still been pretty chilly here. 31 degrees this morning.
So beautiful. Our tree bloomed so quickly, and a windy rain storm quickly took the blooms away. :(
Gorgeous photos. Just lovely.
Magnolias are beautiful. Have you ever smelled them? - Dave
I can easily recall freezing to death in E. Lansing in May.
