Our Valiant Magnolia

Poor thing!  Its blooms were just preparing to come out when we had an ice storm.  Then several days later, adding insult to injury, the temperatures plummeted to 25 degrees.  Magnolias are not meant to endure such torture.

Despite all of the bad weather, a few blooms have appeared on the tree.  Note all of the brown, shriveled blooms surrounding the few white ones.  I think the white ones are called "silver linings."
