It's alive! It's alive!

Last fall I bought a “dwarf magnolia” tree at Natrop’s fall sale for $25. I dug a nice big hole for it and dug out all the rocks and such. I filled it with nice dirt and planted my tree. This spring it hasn’t looked very healthy. The leaves aren’t a very rich, dark green. They’re kindof yellow-ish. I’ve been worried about it, but not worried enough to actually take action. Today Carla pointed out a giant flower bud on it! I could see the bud about to bloom out all the way from the back door of the house. I was so excited, I had to walk out there to see it. There were several other buds ready to bloom too! I’m so glad the tree has survived.
