    Lovely lily of the valley-another cool weather flower that does not do well here as it is too hot. And love the pink magnolias too.

      Actually that's a piers japonica bush. The blooms are reminiscent of lily of the valley though.

      They're from our piers japonica bush. It's a great shrub - stays green all winter and has clusters of these blooms in spring.
