We received a good soaking of rain yesterday, while temperatures soared into the 70’s (20’s Celsius). The Magnolias trees outdid each another to bloom and open up their flowers. We have two trees and together they have thousands of buds opening up today.
A Star Magnolia (Magnolia Stellata) is normally the first one to bloom, but this year it yielded to the above trees.

Magnolias are stunning Spring flowers, and they are so easy to grow. I planted most of ours thirty years ago and they are all thriving.

Isn’t the 70’s warm for this time of year for your area? Weather has been very strange this year.

You are right, it felt like summer. However, it did not last, and today we are back to sweater weather.

WOWOWOW!!! Gorgeous, Hien! Outstanding photography! And oh, FYI, I found Wood Ducks. Those I will be posting along with the story of what happened. I’m thrilled I found them for they do not like to be seen!!
