The weather better bloody well improve, or I will get out my stabbing stick! :)

I know what you mean about the magnolias, the bus-route to uni seems full of them. My favourites are the completely white ones. You know they're the oldest surviving family of flowering plants? Love love love.

I love them all but the pink ones do it for me moreso.
I didn't know that about them - just goes to show ...you learn somthing new everyday!

haha my pleasure & thankyou
Spring always makes me smile ...particularly after such a long horrible winter. I didn't think it would ever end ...& then the magnolias came out - hope at last! Now just looking forward to Daylight savings - nothing like coming home after a drab day at work to the delight of my garden & the evening sun casting it's golden light over everything ...pure bliss.
And a big Happy Spring to you too! :)

I have two very large magnolias here - the freakin possums eat every single flower bud before they have a chance to open.

Oh noes!
cunty possums!
I had a 2 differnet types of chilli plants packed full with ripening chillies & the little buggers came along & devoured every one of them ...they only left one shrivelled up one behind! GRRR
Then they moved along to my parsley plants & chewed the tops off them as well ...double GRRR
...then they toppled over my Rosemary plant (they don't like that one) & put dirt all over the place ...GRRR GRRR GRRR
& they've chewed all the new growth off my row of nine rose bushes out the front of the house GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!
I need to find a solution to this or I will have no garden left!
