Pretty! All of my blooms are gone now, but they were nice while they lasted :)
Happy GTS!
Deb, I suspect my blooms will be gone shortly, too. They really are gorgeous, though.
Gorgeous! Mine are already shedding their petals too.
Anne, it’s going to be sad to see them go!
I love Magnolia blossoms. I have tulips and violets popping up all over the place, Mr. Hot chopped my forsythia to the ground, but the lilies are going nuts, and the lilacs are about ready to shower me with buds.
Oh, and my rhododendrons bloomed this year!!!!
I am one really happy pseudo-gardener.
Gorgeous! I always enjoy the one’s at my mother’s house.
I just taught my husband which ones were magnolia trees and the petals are already dropping around here. Pretty sky!
Lovely photo. I like the contrast with the sky. Happy GTS,
Aiyana
I’m a bit late but the rain today gave me a chance to make it back and catch those Magnolia blooms you promised last Green Thumb Sunday.
I should have delayed posting todays post until this evening. I ran out when the rain stopped only to get driven back indoors when it started again. I feel a bit bad about not getting you into the post. This is one of my regular stops and has one of my favorite titles.

GONE???? Mine are still at the teeny baby bud stage. I was chatting to them only last Saturday as I weeded!
Beautiful flowers! I so much miss the blossoming spring trees and flowers like tulips and daffodils. But Palm trees are nice too, especially in the winter! Sending hugs, hope all is well with you.
Love,
Katherine
Hotfessional, that sounds gorgeous — what an amazing yard!
Laura, aren’t they just the most beautiful trees?
Heather, yes — the sky color was amazing that day.
Aiyana, thank you so much!
Wiseacre, I appreciate your stopping by! No worries — I enjoyed your post and the links from it nonetheless.
Gillie, sounds like you still have time to enjoy them!
Katherine, palm trees are quite nice…and I hope to be living among just a few very soon.
