In my parents backyard in the most beautiful Magnolia tree! Every year I patiently wait for it to go into full bloom, not only for the beauty of it... but the incredible scent of the blossoms! Could they be any more beautiful!? My only concern? It probably will not be in FULL bloom until I am gone to Florida.... I leave Saturday morning, but if the weather stays as warm as it has been since late last week (you would swear it is summer here)... than maybe I'll get lucky! :)

I love magnolias! But they don't grow in New Mexico :-( Great shots! LostAspen · 2008-04-24: 21:22
