japanese magnolia

broken with the recent storm

but new blooms are on their way!
before i moved in with sop, i passed this tree on my way in to work every day. It’s on the other side of campus now, but today i took a walk to see how the blooms were doing. The amazing thing is that although many are battered and worn, there are still a ton of buds just coming out. I’ll have to go by next week also…
