Spring has sprung in NYC.
Despite chilly temperatures, and lots of rain,
this was the week that the early blooming spring trees came
to life.
First out of the gate are the pink magnolias.
They are a city favorite.
With good reason.
Beautiful, varied, and always a joy to behold.
Here are some previous blogs of pink magnolias.

I see that in the last one I mentioned the prevention of a housing complex that would overshadow the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. I spoke too soon I am afraid.
I recently read that the developer is modifying plans. Sigh.
