I have been walking past a tree filled with blossoming buds for weeks now. At the beginning of last week, the tree was in full flower – it looked stunning and I could not help but admire the sight.
I have no idea what type of tree this is, but I do admire the size and beauty of its blooms.
When I took photos of the tree, some of the petals had already fallen to the ground. The surrounding area looked so pretty – just like it would in a picture book.
Seeing the tree was definitely an added pleasure to my walk. The blooms indicated that I was passing the mid-Mark of my exercise period.
I no longer see the beauty of these blossoms as the tree is now fully green. I do remember their beauty, though, and look forward to seeing the blooms once again next year.
Do you know the name of this tree and it’s flowers?

Hi Colline! So glad you are sharing for Sunday Stills again! These gorgeous blossoms are magnolia trees. Our magnolias bloom out in mid February. They really make for a spectacular image close up and far away!

It looks like a star magnolia. to me. BY the amount of bloom it must be a very old tree. There is a magnolia tree on this street that has the same amount of bloom. They are always a treat to see.
