Lovely Magnolias


While out driving around the other day, I noticed the beautiful magnolia trees. Then on the way home, I saw a large one beside the Moravian Church. So when I went back out a few days later, I took my little camera with me and had to stop in their driveway to make some pictures. The blooms were beautiful with a lovely fragrance.































Thank you for looking at my pictures.

Cathy ~ You so perfectly captured their creamy color and velvety texture. I can almost smell their lemony goodness! :o)

Thank you all for your nice comments.

Lorie, they are very beautiful. I wish I had thought to take a picture of the entire tree when I was there. They are very large and prettier than the picture from All Posters. I'm not sure they grow in warmer areas. I'll have to look it up. ((Hugs)) back to you. Cathy
