I had such a lot of catching up here Juliet.. and thank you. Reading through your posts was meeting the essense of spring! Uplifting indeed. I am feeling much better and beginning to get that de-cluttering urge that comes with spring. Thank you thank you!
Joan, lovely to see you here again! and I'm glad to hear that you are feeling better. Thank you.
I love magnolia trees and I've always wanted to have a hedge of them across my front fence. They're so beautiful. And they really do emphasis that Spring has arrived xx
Hi Juliet .. I love magnolias and you tell a great story here - Spring is so uplifting isn't it .. still we have wonderful scents in Autumn days too ..
Mum had a magnolia, where our cats are buried!, in Cornwall - and I drove past that cottage yesterday ... all overgrown - and when Mum was there she created the most amazing veg garden ...
So happy memories with your magnolias - they are beautiful spring blooms ... and remembrance ones too .. cheers Hilary
* Hi Charlie, what a lovely thought, to have a hedge of magnolias. There are so many different varieties, all beautiful and fragrant. Thank you.
* Hilary, how lovely to hear of your mother's magnolia. It's sad when a once-loved garden becomes neglected. So glad this post brings back some happy memories for you. Thank you for visiting.
Beautiful post Juliet! Daphne affects me like this too, i.e. becoming aware of the scent before I stop to notice what a busy day has almost blinded me to. Your photos are very beautiful, I almost feel my own head tilted back to take in the loveliness.
Ruth, thank you for your beautiful response. Daphne is a big favourite of mine too, but I haven't succeeded in growing it. I love what you say about tilting your head back to take in the loveliness. Thank you.
What can be better than just this, Juliet? A magnolia moment. Enjoy!
Penny, welcome back!
Oh wonderful and now as we slide into weedy autumn i have had a magnolia moment too. i have planted a beautiful one right outside my bedroom french doors so in the spring i catch as much of the fragrance as possible. it is called Donna's tree.. have a lovely day! celi from the kitchens garden farmy
Hi Celi, great to see you here and to think of your magnolia all set and ready to delight you in the spring. Thank you.
The magnolia against the sky is utterly breathtaking!
Thank you Vicki. I was inspired by it.
