Lovely and wonderful shape of tree. I thought it was Cherry blossom from the pics then read it was Magnolia. I have white and purple ones, so forgot about pinks ones like × soulangeana. I only have 2 blossoms about to open and a few hopefuls...I did prune them back though last year.

Oh my! Well worth waiting for.

Truly lovely Pdb :0)

How beautiful is that!

Wow! I bet many of your neighbours suffer Magnolia Envy!

Smashing to see, ive got three white bloom ones and three flowering cherry they're all out just now and it really makes you know spring is here.
Great pictures.

M. x loebneri 'Leonard Messel' by the look of it. Lovely thing. You plant it?

wow thats amazing how long has it taken to get to this size ?? i have had mine 2 years now 24" high and no blooms :(((

Hi Worthy1 and Grudog
No I didn't plant it. It was in the garden when we moved here 13 yrs ago. To think when I was redesigning the garden I ( well OH) very nearly dug it out! It was only a nurseryman delivering some plants that said it would cost a lot of money to buy did I decide to keep it. So glad I did. I love it.
