Description
Wild Magnolia don't have the color range of the Asian magnolia. Native magnolia flowers are generally some tone of white: creamy yellow, greenish, or pure white. The Ashe�s magnolia flowers, for example, have pink or purple markings inside the flower, but the overall color is still white. Almost all magnolia flowers are heavily perfumed, and a number of species have remarkably large flowers a also.
These intriguing trees are part of the oldest flowering plant family living today, with relatives that grew alongside the dinosaurs. Their flowers give a hint to their primitive ancestry as they don�t have distinct numbers of petals, stamens, and ovaries. The floral parts are spirally arranged with numerous male stamens around the female carpels. The fruit is cone-like and can be quite colorful when their bright red seeds slowly emerge out of the cone.
