March 3rd Journaling with Inspirational Cards

Today's card is the ancient flowering tree Magnolia virginiana. Hope, love, health, and happiness!

Life energy - where will the winds and waves take you?

The leaves of the Magnolia tree are alternate, simple (not lobed), and the margins are entire (not toothed). The Magnolia can be evergreen in the South and deciduous in the Northern climes. 

The flower perianth consists of tepals that take the place of sepals (the outermost whorls of a flower) and petals.
