I had given up on these branches. They seemed dry and dead. They had all laid on the cold ground, broken off from their trees for days before I found them and put them in water. Of course they were too traumatized and broken to bloom.
I put them out on the porch to see their silhouettes and begrudgingly watered them. I was going to use them as egg trees come Easter.
It was warm today and I went to lay on the sun filled porch while I waited for Lily's bus.
Holy crap!
Pink eeking out from a magnolia bud and a bright red eye looking at me from the buds of the other branch!
They're opening!!!
Unbelievable.
