Flowering Trees sib 
Magn olias + «+ 4 
As Southern as mint-julep is this aristocratic plant. Its thick, polished leaves and 
striking, sweet-scented flowers long ago earned for it a foremost place among the flowering 
trees grown by southerners. Both evergreen and deciduous varieties are grown; the evergreen 
Ones are not hardy far north, but some of them, such as the Bull Bay, grow into glorious 
specimens in favored locations in the South. Unbelievably lovely are the deciduous sorts 
which flaunt their blooms early in the spring before the leaves appear. The Magnolia is so 
firmly established in the tradition of the old South that it deserves an honored place in every 
home garden. 
Magnolias are not difficult to grow. They need a soil that is well supplied with leaf- 
mold and a location where they will be protected from strong winds. They are best trans- 
planted in the spring before growth starts; pruning to improve the form of the plants may be 
necessary from time to time.

cent native evergreen sometimes growing
