Some Southern Magnolia (Magnolia grandiflora) details...

I am untrained in flora and fauna and learn as I come upon things. I had wondered why so few Bees bother with these sickly sweet smelling blossoms, apparently Magnolias evolved before Bees so there main target is still Beetles...

Hello! I just rebloged your post about the tree in Dubai, I called that place a garden in the tags which reminded me that in the book Armand showed Daniel a vision of a garden right before he turned him. So I went digging and this is what I found:

"They had stopped beneath a dying tree in which the wisteria grew wild. Its delicate blossoms shivered in clusters, its great twining arms white as bone. [...] They stood beneath the dead tree twined full of airy purple wisteria blossoms. And the blossoms stroked his face, the clusters of waxy petals. Something came back to him, something he had known long ago—that in the language of an ancient people the word for flowers was the same as the word for blood."

So. In the book it was wisteria instead of magnolia. According to Google, wisteria is a symbol of love, long life, resilience, devotion in Japanese culture, humility and reflection in Shin Buddhism. And magnolia has completely different meanings, I haven't found anything about love or devotion etc. So I wonder why they changed it, what does it mean. Will they turn Daniel in this garden in Dubai under the magnolia tree? Or will Armand conjure a vision of a different garden with his mind?

Ohhhh I love the idea that the Magnolia tree will double for that as well!!!

I do think that the pebbles surrounding it have meaning (since Louis seems to come up from them at some point in the next two episodes?) and supposedly Magnolia trees grow in both their places of origin, but yes, I could see this, too!

IF Daniel is turned in Dubai then yes, I could easily see it being done under the tree there... 👀

Apart from that I have not managed to narrow down the actual meaning of the tree yet either^^, though I do believe it has one... but it might be that we will only be able to evaluate it properly after the season - or even seasons.

In any case - I do hope the vision (if it happens) will be beautiful!!
