Riot of purple colours

The beginning of December saw the blooming of Lilly magnolias in our garden. It was a pleasant sight to see these purple flowers on all the tips of the branches. A closer look resembled a canopy of flower arrangement. 

Lilly magnolias require very little water and are best for garden fencing. They attract birds and bees alike as these flowers stay on the branches for a longer time. From mid-January, the flowering of this shrub will be no decline, when I may have to focus on other flowering plants for taking pictures.
