Magnolia Flowers Pairs

I am using two pictures from my visit to the American Museum  to take part in the weekly Helena's Pairs this Wednesday. I have returned to the ever faithful ZIZO to depict two pictures of the fabulous magnolia tree that was in full flower by the entrance to the Mount Vernon garden. Here it is reaching over the wall.


Then zooming in I chose one group of flowers where the inside of a flower was just revealed.


What splendid flowers they are!

    Absolutely beautiful. I love magnolias, I'd love one but sadly my garden is much too small to consider getting one.

    Magnolias are one of my favorite. I've taken lots of photos of them, but never seen the inside of one framed like yours. It's stunning!

    Both are just lovely - I love the architectural shape of the tree, but the close up with those delicate colours is very pretty too.
