Timing is everything.
Our back neighbor has a young magnolia tree. And every year we watch it come to bloom just in time for the rains to come. For a few, brief moments, the flowers look magnificent and they emit the sweetest perfumes. And in the next moment, they are tattered and strewn upon the ground.
This year the rain pounded the tree's tight buds.
They held.
And the rains have stopped. And the buds have opened.
They look like spring. They look like Easter.
The timing was perfect....we are due to have about 4 or more days of sun and warmth and no rain. Congratulations little tree.
