Magnolia sieboldii
On this page you will find what we think are some of the best resources on magnolias -- many of which you will find online.
One of the best ways to learn about magnolias is to join the Magnolia Society to receive our twice-yearly Magnolia: journal of the American Magnolia Society with all of the latest news on new species, cultivars, and propagation methods. Coming soon for members only, we will be making available online the entire journal archives.
Just getting started with magnolias? This "Botanical Buzz" podcast featuring San Francisco Botanical Garden docent Maggie McDowell will give you some insight into the ancient origins of magnolias.
