THE MAGNOLIAS 



THEIR lavish profusion of large and beautiful flowers, their fragrance, richness of foliage and stately, 

 tropical aspect place the Magnolias easily first among flowering trees. Planted in groups, their 

 Spring inflorescence is grand beyond description; as lawn specimens or against an evergreen foil, 

 their large, glossy foliage and shapely outline make them beautiful anywhere. They thrive in any good 

 soil, but like best one that is warm, rich and moderately moist. Plant in Spring to insure best results.
