Thank you, Andrea. The heat pump has really been busy during part of December and also January. I am glad that it is warming up some. Your visits always add a special touch. Sara K

Valsa, this one is a star magnolia which is one of the first trees to bloom in spring. I need to look it up and see where it came from, etc. I have had that one for a very long time, but I have not sought out any information on it. Thank you for dropping by. Sara K

That tree, Sara B., has been trying to bloom since October. It has outdone itself against these cold snaps and cold nights. Sara K

Great that you enjoyed it, Howard. The star magnolia keeps trying to bloom despite the cold of this winter especially cold at night. Thanks for stopping by. Sara K
