ricki, aren't blue skies the best? Can you ever get tired of them?
RFG, tropical, yes! My very first ever trip to Cistus Nursery I saw it and had to have it. Luckily it's sailed right though just fine. Now if it would just put on a few more blooms!
Grace, why don't you get one!?
Scott, well put. Whomever lives in this house in the future had better appreciate that tree.
Standing under a tree you planted in your garden and looking up at the blue blue sky.
(it's a 5 yr old (to me) Magnolia macrophylla if you're wondering)
Cheerful!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen that one around here too much... the leaves look really tropical on account of their size!
ReplyDeleteI had a feeling it was your Magnolia. I'm lusting after that tree as I drool over your photos! Love that blue sky behind it.
ReplyDeleteI was just looking up through the largest of my Japanese maples. The fact that I planted this tree as a baby ten years ago is just awe inspiring.
Totally! Trees are like our commitment to our gardens and the planet...knowing they will (hopefully) be here even after we are gone!
