SURPRISE, SURPRISE..

.....here's a flower that I know the name of! This lovely Star Magnolia is in our front garden, it only blooms once a year but it's well worth the wait. Sadly the flowers only last for a short period but as I say it really is worth the wait, I hope you like it too...I've a feeling there will be a couple more flower  pictures before the week is over...

    1. You are so right, if only they flowered more often or stayed in bloom longer...
