I have a gorgeous Saucer Magnolia tree in the back yard. I love the way some of the branches curve to the ground. There are buds on the tree and it will bloom soon. It has been known to bloom twice in one season but the second time there were few flowers.
I like to bring a few of the flowers inside to put in a shallow bowl. They will last a few days and it keeps me aware that spring is here.
This tree will grow about one foot a year and grow to 20-30 feet in height and width. It needs a lot of space. Mine has been struck by lightening twice and still continues to grow and produce flowers.
