    Magnolias are so lovely...genteel and Southern. We actually have magnolia tree up here in New Jersey....it seems to do well, I assume because it is right next to the house where it is a little warmer in the winter. Your pictures are beautiful.

    Beautiful, beautiful blossoms...I envy you! My husband went to school in the south, he says the smell is great but can become a little over powering....that's an experience I would like to have.

    The kind we have here, Japanese magnolias with a purplish blush outside the bloom, are not fragrant. Lucky you! My fave of the bunch is the 3rd from the bottom. Gorgeous.

    We have a large Magnolia tree in our front yard...actually they line our whole block...they are so pretty, but kind of messy...but I don't mind!

    I am jealous....I would love a magnola tree in my yard. I am lucky to have what I have, as I live in the high desert.

    Magnolias are such magnificent flowers! They've been blooming around here for the past several weeks. But as beautiful as the blooms are, I truly love magnolia leaves. The contrast of the shiny deep green and the rough, rich brown has always fascinated me.

    Thanks for hosting Outdoor Wednesday.

    Our magnolias has already bloomed out. They get prettier every year. I love the southern Magnolias because they seem so much larger

    I guess I'm a bit slow - I've been following your other blog, but not this one, and have seen so many allusions to this link, but never made the connection (bad pun not intended!). Sooooo - I'm ready to link today's post on Wednesday and I'm having fun and getting inspiration from last weeks.
    Your magnolia shots are heavenly.
