The Magnolia in CCNU

After the plum blossoms faded,

There is another flower in CCNU in March.

That is magnolia.

试问春风何处好？辛夷如雪柘冈面。

（宋 王安石）

Magnolia often produces large rounds of white flowers.

And with the fragrant scent,

It is fresh and pleasing.

Because of its tall tree,

The flowering position is high.

Its petals are so white,

And it looks spotless.

When you pass by it,

Are you willing to stop and appreciate it?

Petals that look like crystals stretch out

A warm breeze blows around

In the air, it dyes with the scent of flowers

玉兰绰约新妆玉有辉，素娥千队雪成围。

（明 文徵明）

Every angle of Magnolia is beautiful

Its background can be a red wall

And it can also be a forest

Different aspects have different beauty

The spring of Wuhan is short,

And soon the summer is around the corner

In the flower season of magnolia,

Why don’t you go out and have a look?
