MAGNOLIA'S

 Almost all the Magnolia's are now flowering.


This one is Lenard Missel which we only planted late last year in the new back border.


This is going to be a great plant as it grows over the coming years.



The oldest magnolia we have, Stellarta , has been flowering for a couple of weeks now, looking glorious and full.


Magnolia Susan is also full of beautiful pink blooms. It growing well and filling the space.



A closer look at the Susan blooms.


Magnolia Black Tulip is full of beautiful blooms still with more flowering. We have last autumn cut back some of the shrubs surrounding this tree and propped the main trunk up , hoping that this will help make the tree grow more upright instead of out trying to find more light.

We also have a yellow magnolia that flowers slightly later, so that's still to come plus late last year we planted an evergreen magnolia which will take a while to flower.

Although the flowering season only last for a short time, they are well worth waiting for.

MAGNOLIA BLACK TULIP

 


Our beautiful Magnolia , Black Tulip is flowering with lots of beautiful big blooms.


The blooms are such a lovely colour when the sun hits them.


This magnolia is getting nice and big now and seems to like where it is, which is good and we hope it will continue to grow big and strong.


Just hoping it won't get hit by a frost any time soon, so the rest of the buds can also flower.
