Description
I was fortunate enough to visit Morton Arboretum in Lisle, Illinois, when the white magnolia trees were fully loaded with beautiful blossoms at their peak. There were several trees of varying shapes and sizes. I found this one the most pleasing.
Against the beautiful blue sky and puffy white clouds, the dark bark of the tree trunk and branches and the green hue of the spring grass contrast beautifully with the lovely white magnolias and their floppy petals.

Phyllis Taylor
Awesome capture....there must be thousands of blooms on this tree!
Joni Eskridge replied:
Yes, I certainly wouldn't want to have to count them! Thanks for the visit Phyllis!
Debra Martz
So full and beautiful draping all the way to the ground!
Joni Eskridge replied:
Thanks Debra. It was amazing to catch at this point in time as they are so fragile. Usually I get there after the blossoms have started browning and the wind has left petals strewn all about. Some petals on the ground can be pretty, but this was a thrill!
