We saw "Up" and "Ice Age 3" and they were both very good. Didn't see Avatar, however, as littlest isn't keen on scifi (except Dr Who); but thanks for the warning re AIW as that was on our Easter hols list.Kate Hardyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07367918727779245526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7625290842452474467.post-33131874881982877472010-04-02T13:22:55.048+01:002010-04-02T13:22:55.048+01:00Sharon, my knowledge of all things horticultural c...Sharon, my knowledge of all things horticultural could fit in a very small thimble. I'm lucky to have a neighbor with a green thumb - I reap the benefits every Spring. It blooms these lovely white flowers every year around this time. Their fragrance is intoxicating. I've always associated the Magnolia with the southern United States, myself; Chicago is definitely in a different temperate zone. I'm guessing that this tree is a hybrid of some sort, I would have to ask her. She has shown me infinite tolerance over the years as I struggle every summer just to keep my lawn green.Dannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7625290842452474467.post-18444595687523356902010-04-02T10:37:20.702+01:002010-04-02T10:37:20.702+01:00How lovely that sounds, Dan - especially as I neve...How lovely that sounds, Dan - especially as I never associate Chicago with the famous "tulip tree". Thanks for the different perspective. I once heard that a magnolia tree doesn't bloom for seven years - is there any truth in that?<br /><br />(Have just looked up magnolia to find that 'evidence suggests they're the most primitive flowering plants still living on Earth').

After a long, bleak Winter here in Chicago, the weather has been absolutely glorious for the past couple of days. I'm lucky to live near a forest preserve, so I took to the foot paths and witnessed the beginnings of Spring. A neighbor's magnolia is just beginning to bloom and just the sight and smell of it was inspirational. The snow shovels are stowed away and I am ready.
