Magnolias (revisited) and cherry trees






Top picture is the magnolia shrubs. They're not quite there yet, but they are budding. The next picture down is the magnolia trees. The frost got quite a few of the blossoms, but what is there is lovely. I'm told that if you've seen the magnolias in the South you don't really think our trees are worthy of being called magnolias. You can call them whatever you want--I'm just glad to see the spring!
The bottom picture is of the flowers, the cherry blossoms, and the temple. Just go ahead and try!

Springing!




I know these pictures aren't much now, but if the weather continues springlike, we are going to have magnolias at Temple Square. I will keep you posted (no pun intended).
By the way, the magnolia shrubs are outside the South Visitors' Center. Don't you love the reflection of the temple and the Tabernacle in the windows?
