Magnificent Magnolias
Nothing matches Southern Magnolias for the impact of the white flowers the size of dinner plates with the dark green waxy leaves behind them. Now past the greatest blooming season but they do offer a flower off and on all year. Now is time for the smaller flowers that are exact copies called Loblollies...really a different species all together...but tall trees with the flowers and leaves the are smaller copies of the Magnolia Shirley

Magnificent is probably the best word to descibe Magnolias Shirley - sometimes they don't even look natural.
