I imagine you could give one a better home than that. <br /><br />Hi Frances, It is spectacular in bloom. I thought I had another photo with the blooms open. Oh well, will take some photos this spring. <br />Glad to make the fix. Not sure what I was thinking. <br /><br />Hi Tina, the seeds are easy enough to collect up and you don't have to worry about them being wild reseeders. Glad you have a couple of these. Hooray for shade tolerant trees!<br /><br />Hi Nancy, the small tree size and these big leaves really make it stand out in the landscape. <br /><br />Hi Sweetbay, I need to visit the NC Botanical Garden. I am sure there are tons of plants that I will fall in love with!<br /><br />Hi Noelle, Your landscapes are so different than what I have in Tidewater...I am happy to share via photos! Your posts are very interesting!<br /><br />Hi Miss Daisy, I liked that picture of the seed pod....I have a limited macro ability so when I get a good shot it is cause for celebrating!<br /><br />Hi Grace, I guess with the zone 8b climate of yours lends itself to a wonderful growing experience. Love your new collage!<br /><br />Hi Cameron, why thank you! Duke Gardens are another NC garden I need to check out. So, any suggestions on a tree you might like to see profiled? During the winter I will be presenting evergreens.Janet, The Queen of Seafordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07876204203323750245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6119628314111837184.post-4053982352461514512009-10-13T19:03:11.161-04:002009-10-13T19:03:11.161-04:00You select such beautiful trees to feature!

Not to the self seeded ones though. I do see them all the time where I hike at the base. They are very pretty.
