without protection, and is now much cultivated for Maznotia 
ornament in the gardens and public walks. ieee 
In 1866, I saw it in full flower in the Boboli 
Gardens, on the 18th of June; and it not only 
flowers every year, but bears fruit. 
This has passed unhurt (carefully protected 
however), through the late severe winter of 1870-71 
and one of the plants (the same already mentioned) 
flowered well this autumn (1871), going on with a 
succession of flowers from August to the middle of 
Oétober. There is a very fine Magnolia of this 
species, of great height and probably of consider- 
able age, growing against the wall of the Bishop’s 
Palace at Wells: it was beautifully in flower in 
August of this year.
