Things are blooming like crazy over here in Vancouver... so much so, that I actually got seasonal allergy symptoms over the weekend... in March!! Huh? I don't think I have seen and smelled so many blossoms so early in the year. I am prepared this year though... I got my prescription nasal spray yesterday, so am planning to enjoy these blooming beauties with clear eyes (and clear nasal passages)... so bring it on magnificent magnolia, bring it on!

Global warming does have some up shots. Early spring, for example. :)
Allergies are such a pain! Hope you can enjoy them better with some medicinal help. xoxo
p.s. They are so gorgeous!
I love magnolias, such lovely delicate flowers. ^_^
Ah, blossoms are the best. This week has been the DREAM weather. I hope it lasts.
Oh lovely! I've actually never seen a magnolia tree in person, I bet they are even more beautiful than in pictures!
Beautiful photo of a magnificent tree. In California we always called those pink magnolia trees "Tulip Trees" and for years and years I had thought that the only color magnolia blossoms came in was creamy white...but just like Molly Ringwald, magnolias are "Pretty in Pink".
gosh you're lucky, we're still waiting for blossoms here in the UK. ive noticed a few crocus' and leaf buds... still acting like winter here which is frustrating!
isn't it beautiful? just wish I could stop sneezing!
Are you sure you're living in Vancouver and not paradise??? All the photos of snow, beautiful flowers, sceneries.. Why do I not get anything like this (or anything closer) in Singapore. :( Now I certainly got to add Vancouver on my to-travel-list.

beautiful :) In Albuquerque spring comes early most of the time. We had a mild winter but I am glad spring is here! I also am so glad I don't have many allergies, the juniper is killer.
Great pic! Glad you're getting stocked up on allergy meds..it's going to be a tough spring..when I was preggo..my allergy symptoms seemed worse too.
Enjoy the sunshine ~ from a fellow nasal spray injector-is ;)
What a beautiful sight; I'm sorry it's accompanied by allergies :/
oooh gorgeous! I love that it's warming up everywhere. So done with the cold weather :)
Lovely capture! Pink flowers & blue sky making me sneeze as I type this. Thanks for posting Ms. Valerie :)
so pretty! but thank goodness for that nasal spray, i know how you feel.
along with the cherry blossom festival, there were so many magnolias in bloom when we lived in DC and i miss them so. i'll just keep living vicariously through your blog, haha.
Beautiful :)
They are so cheery aren't they?! :)
Yep, the nasal sprays came out in this house over the weekend too :)
Have a great day, T.
really beautiful photo
Ooooh PINK magnolias! This could very well result on an updated version of my Sweet Magnolia hair clip. Hmmmm...
Love your photos, as always!
Magnolias are my favorite! I've always thought they looked like trees full of tulips. They are really doing well this winter here in Vancouver aren't they?
I love the blossoms, love the leaves in Christmas decorating, and love that it's a tree. Glad you got your squirt on before all the pollen
That photo is just exquisite. And the allergies...I can identify...have my spray as well...pity it's so expensive tho! Take care, love to you...
*sigh*
we planted a yellow magnolia in our yard a couple of years ago, and I *think* she is finally going to bloom this year, but it hasn't happened yet. I can't wait to see it!
♥
What a peaceful, photo. It made me smile :) Had a rough day... I could use smiling :) Thanks!
We've headed into Autumn (Fall) here and I must say I can't wait for Spring!
lovely : )
our magnolia usually blooms for like 3 days and then, poof, it'll snow and the whole thing is over with.
Absolutely beautiful blossoms!
Wow, those are magnificent.:)
