May 5 Daily Dose of Nature
I have a non-bird entry for you today, in the interest of trying to actually get to bed on time for once. My magnolia tree finally bloomed this week, with the first blossoms opening on Sunday, May 3. This isn't a wild plant. It's not even a naturally occurring one. Saucer Magnolia (Magnolia × soulangeana) is a man-made hybrid. But it sure is pretty. I look forward to this tree blooming every spring. (One day soon I will dig up for you some photos of the magnolia species which is native to my area, but for today, I'll leave you with these pretty pictures of my cultivated plant.)
