The Magnolia Blooms

On patrol through the Manor gardens I realised what good fortune it was that I had brought The Owners phone with me. The magnolia is in full bloom tonight and Manor Hoomun and Lady Manor Hoomun are away. The forecast is for frost over the weekend so they may not see its full glory.

I have been on patrol again this evening and have to report that the Magnolia has survived the frosts of recent nights - unburnt! The Owner just doesn't understand of course, he is saying how lucky it all is. I know luck had nothing to do with it. It was the warmth of the wee that I have been applying liberally to it's roots that kept the frost at bay. Obvious really!
