The Magnolia (Er Qiao) in the Master of Nets Garden is in full bloom

When I went to Wangshi Garden, the white magnolia had withered, but I still found the patio. Looking up, I saw the intertwined branches outlining strong lines on the gray sky. Without the embellishment of petals, the lines drawn by the branches look very much like the dry brush strokes in literati paintings. Turning around the corridor, the Erqiao in front of the teahouse was in full bloom. In the stained glass window, the pink and white flower shadows swayed, which was indeed very beautiful. But this scenery is too similar to the flower wall in Couple Garden and lacks some novelty. However, the corner of flowers glimpsed through the window outside the wall is quite interesting. The tea room was furnished with bamboo tables and chairs under the magnolia tree, and the celadon tea set and exquisite snacks should have been extremely elegant. Unfortunately, there were so many tourists and the constant sound of shutter clicks shattered the artistic conception. The branches of the Erqiao tree on the top of the rockery are twisted in a weird way. When I first saw it, I thought it was an artificial flower deliberately made by a craftsman. Upon closer inspection, I found that it was alive, but it didn't quite fit in with the surrounding rockery and rocks. The deliberately bizarre landscaping in this garden sometimes loses its natural charm.
