AUGUST SKY



I had to remove a Magnolia soulangiana from my backyard that  I had planted 12 years ago.  I came to realize that its nature was to produce a canopy that would eventually cover the entire yard--something I didn't want to happen.  It didn't take pruning well, so I had no choice.

Here it is blooming last April, its finest hour.

What I lost in spring color, I gained in southern sky.
