Magnolias come in all shapes and sizes,
but perhaps the most well known magnolia in Florida is the Southern
magnolia, Magnolia grandiflora. These stately trees can grow
up to 90 feet tall, depending on the cultivar, and have lustrous,
evergreen foliage that makes a great backdrop for other garden
plants. In the spring and summer, Southern magnolias produce
creamy white flowers that have a lemony smell and can be as large
across as dinner plates. Southern magnolias are often planted
as specimen trees, but a row of magnolias can also make a great
screen for blocking unsightly views or establishing a boundary
between adjoining properties. Reference:
