Magnolia



My regular customers know that I grow trees from seeds. About 10 years ago I seeded a Magnolia and it grew nicely for so many years, but not a single flower.
A few days ago I noticed something white on my magnolia (it almost look like pieces of tissue) ...after many years of waiting she flowered. Not to many, maybe 20 blooms but I am very happy.
Pictures are:magnolia and double primulas ...I love spring!
