Magnolia Tree

Hubby's outdoor project today meant we needed to trim a couple of branches off our Magnolia Tree.  I went through the trimmings and picked out all the ones that had a blossom or two.

I don't know if I'm doing this right as far as taking them indoors and putting them in water.  I just know I didn't want to leave them behind.

This blossom bloomed shortly after I had put it in water.

The scent from one of these blossoms is so strong and potent, I love that the scent is an "air freshener" in my house.  There have been many times I have walked out the front door and the front lawn is full of this wonderful heavenly scent.  I'm so pleased with this tree, I truly love it.
