M. ALEXANDRINA ... A hybrid that is more vig- 
orous than the Soulangeana. Flower larger, 9 petals, 
color of most blooms dark purplish pink and white 
on the inside of petals. Blooms at our nursery two 
weeks later than Soulangeana and usually escapes 
the danger of late freezes. Foliage larger than 
Soulangeana. There are several varieties called 
Alexandrina today; we obtained this variety from 
several nurseries and the flowers differ. The stock 
we are offering was propogated from a plant that 
was imported from France years ago and is now 
growing in Evergreen, Louisiana. It was recom- 
mended to us under the name of Alexandrina by 
the late Mrs. Dan DeBaillon of Lafayette, La., who 
was an authority on Magnolias. There is another 
very attractive Magnolia with much whiter blooms 
called Alexandrina Alba.
