Ours too. And it's only been in a year! (and a bit)
Everything seems to be in blossom except the cherry.

And I noticed tiny figs on the fig tree, too!

Ours too. Also lots of apricot, peach, damson and cherry blossom.
Exeptional magnolia too. The apples and plums have lots of buds about
to burst.

Magnolia agreed. My daughter and son in law have just come back from a three
month Round the World Cruise to a Magnolia in full bloom. Actually it is
three trees planted close together to form one massive tree head.

We also have a magnificent Magnolia just round the corner to us. In front of
a 'Chocolate Box Cottage' as well.

Chocolate box cottage in Lake Mike, where? Can't say I've noticed one but
will stand corrected and will certainly make an effort to see the magnolia.
We have a recently planted one in our front garden (about 1 year ago) which
had 2 flowers on last year and 15 this year!

Will have you had a chance to see it?

I wanted to take a photo and post it, but I was busy yesterday getting ready
for last night's AGM. This morning it's raining and this afternoon I have to
go to the Radio Studios to do an interview. Will try tomorrow, subject to
the weather.

Will, (or any of the Isle of Wight urglers), have you seen the Magnolia in
Arreton opposite the Community Centre/Village Hall?
Saw it this afternoon on my way though to the studios at Newport to do a
Radio Broadcast Interview ....... fantastic that one.

Hi Mike,
Not had a chance to see either as yet, but will make a determined effort
before they drop or blow off!
