Named after French botanist Pierre Magnol, the Magnolia genus is an ancient and diverse group of flowering plants. As one of the earliest flowering plant types, their evolution is so ancient that it predates bees, meaning their flowers were likely crafted to entice pollinating beetles. Boasting an impressive array of approximately 210 to 340 species, Magnolias are fascinating not just for their vibrant heritage, but for their distinctive characteristics and widespread distribution.

Notably, Magnolias display gender fluidity in their flowers and bear hardy capels that are resilient to damage inflicted by pollinating insects. Dispersed across East and Southeast Asia, Eastern North America, Central America, and parts of South America, these vibrant plants are a celebration of nature’s diversity, blooming brightly with colours ranging from green and yellow to pink, purple, and white.

Drawing the admiration of horticulturists globally, Magnolias have found their way into beloved gardening varieties, and their petals, notably of the Magnolia grandiflora, have even been pickled and used as a condiment in some parts of England. In keeping with its multifaceted appeal, Magnolias grace various art forms, including sculptures and painting, bearing testimony to their enchanting allure.
