It seems to be a bumper year for magnolia blossom around here. There are trees on every street absolutely loaded with the blossoms, all variations of purple and pink and white. They don't last long.
This yellow magnolia grows beside the pond near my house. It had no blossoms last spring as an early ice storm killed the flower buds. But this year it's making up for the loss.
Note: That heron beside the pond looks intriguing but sorry, it isn't real, it's made of metal. But a real heron arrives most evenings and walks around the water's edge hunting for dinner.
...I love yellow magnolias.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know they came in any color but white! Pretty! Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteTo my sorrow I have failed to grow magnolias. I revel in those in other gardens but have not seen a yellow one.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful.
ReplyDeleteI love magnolias, but like in your area a late frost often leads to a lack of flowers.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous !
ReplyDeleteHave a nice week !

ReplyDeleteWe had a few windy days right after our started to bloom and almost all of them blew away.

ReplyDeleteMagnolias are beautiful but they don’t last long, do they?
ReplyDeleteThe blooms are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo. A magnolia superbloom!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely picture you paint—yellow magnolias are such a rare and gentle beauty. I'm glad this tree is blooming again after last year’s loss. Even your mention of the heron, real or not, adds a special charm. I just shared a new travel post. I am excited for you to read it. Thank you. Happy weekend.
ReplyDeleteI have never seen yellow magnolias before..simply beautiful. Love that the heron (real) visits the metal one..what a couple..haha..

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful photo. Even if it's not real, the heron silhouette caught my eye!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo, beautiful flowers, I like them all, they always give that tone of joy and happiness, which I often bring to my paintings.
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend.
Best regards.
Yellow Magnolia is beautiful, I’ve never seen them in person. The seasonal flowers blooming in my place is Hydrangeas. Hope you're doing well.
