Deciduous ornamental

Big Leaf Magnolia (Magnolia macrophylla) is an impressive deciduous tree native to the southeastern United States. It is celebrated for its colossal leaves and large, fragrant white flowers — often among the largest blooms of any temperate tree species. Ideal as a specimen tree or focal point in spacious gardens and woodland landscapes, it adds dramatic structure from spring through summer. While early growth from seed requires patience, once established, the tree is resilient and an enduring landscape feature.
