Magnolia blooms are actually saucer sized. The birds, as well as hummingbirds, flock to the magnolia tree when it is in bloom. The dark green leaves make a nice contrast with the big saucer sized white blooms.
Duding the summer I go out and pick up the big leaves as they are not good for the lawnmower. But I don’t mind. It is so worth it to have this evergreen tree in my yard.
It is always green. And the tree grows taller every year. I would like to have more magnolia trees.

Such a gorgeous Magnolia!
The bloom looks lovely!!
I’m sure I’ve seen it somewhere … but not as lovely!
Thanks, I love these huge blooms and they smell so sweet.
I wish I could smell them too!
Perhaps its time to head down to the parks again!
We have a few varieties of magnolias here. But none of them have saucer sized blooms. They smell like heaven though.
Yes they do smell sweet, that is what attracts the birds especially hummingbirds.
That is so lovely I love magnolia blooms and their fragrance
Thanks, I love these huge blooms as well.
Magnolia is a beautiful plant. I saw the most beautiful while visiting the park.
The tree is massive, it has grown so fast in the yard.
Magnolia is not growing here but I enjoy its blossoms when being abroad. Very nice tree
Thanks, I enjoy it in my yard.
Magnolia also blooms beautifully here, dear friend
That is good to know my friend.
It has a beautiful flower in different colors only lasts a short time.
Yes but it has many blooms all over the tree and they are huge!
