Ours did not die back fully for once so it had a head start. It just started to bloom also which is a first for us.

I actually got some of the same shots as you, but yours are so much better. I've been trying to decide whether a big-leaf Magnolia can take the western summer sun in my front garden. I think it would make a good addition to the tropical look I want to achieve there. I'm so glad I got to hear Kelly speak. He was so entertaining, talking off-the-cuff about his seed-seeking adventures in China.Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16323262555906240701noreply@blogger.com
