I love these – Japanese Magnolia? Is that right? The one from my childhood was always nipped by frost but sometimes it was glorious for a long time! Thank you for the memory!

Not sure what kind of magnolia this is. There are several kinds in Central Park, where I took this picture, and I am no magnolia expert… :-)

The magnolias had hardly arrived when some of them were cut short by the freak April snowfall a week or so ago—the last gasp of winter! Now it’s really spring :-)
