Magnolia coming out
One of the oldest flowering plants
Magnolia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia :
"Fossilised specimens of M. acuminata have been found dating to 20 million years ago, and of plants identifiably belonging to the Magnoliaceae dating back to 95 million years ago"
This dating puts Magnolias back well into the Cretaceous which means time of the good ol dinosaur's
Will try to post more later
This is our second tree, first succumbed to rare insect infestation
Really nice to be "stuck" here at the same time he/she blossoms
