The magnolia tree in front of Kenwood House is so close to bursting out all over – just one more day of full sun. So first up, a talking walk around the tree, followed by a wander through the daffodil bank.
From the end of the daffodil bank I walked round the back of the Kenwood West Lawn past a pink magnolia, still very much in bud, and a small magnolia stellata, its first blossoms just opening….
…on to a rather premature pale pink azalea bush. For those who can see it please feel free to move on; for those who can’t I have done my best to describe it.
And finally, in our pursuit of bursting buds, brambles and – well I am not sure what it is actually, so for now let’s call it a snow tree. New brambles bursting into tiny bouquets of vibrant green leaves and a snow tree covered in fairy size white boiled sweets!!
