Magnolia

No, not an alien creature from outer space, but a seed pod off my auntie's magnolia in Wichita. Laura @columbiariver do you fancy any of these?

Doh! You know they spell things different over here Bracket @scaryskates

Woah....Keep me out of this. I want to get home in one place! 😁😁😁 @scaryskates As it happens Bracket dear boy, I can only think of one word right now - colour & color which is spelt differently

@columbiariver working on it right now Laura 👍

It's good stuff Bracket. Maybe a bit too good! 😁🍷@scaryskates

Wow 😲

Will do Laura 👍 @columbiariver 😊

Fabulous what an amazing structure 👌🏻

Isn't it ! Not seen anything like it @nessas

Can I have some please? That is if she knows which magnolia it is so I can check the cold hardy zone # . Please! 😳👾

Of course Michelle 👍 winters here fall to 20F or lower (Wichita - where I was for a few days) &'it is a very big mature tree, maybe 20ft tall. Has dark glossy leaves & large highly scented white flowers, but name not known 😕. I still have plenty, so email me your address at voso1959@gmail.com 👍. @purplebird

@cyndi our winters should be fine for it. The red coat comes off quite readily & already has done so on some of the seeds. I may try a few in the fridge in case we get too mild as winter!
