     professor of botany at Montpellier, France, in the 17th
     century.] (Bot.)

     Note: {Magnolia grandiflora} has coriaceous shining leaves
           and very fragrant blossoms. It is common from North
           Carolina to Florida and Texas, and is one of the most
           magnificent trees of the American forest. The sweet bay
           ({Magnolia glauca})is a small tree found sparingly as
           far north as Cape Ann. Other American species are
           {Magnolia Umbrella}, {Magnolia macrophylla}, {Magnolia
           Fraseri}, {Magnolia acuminata}, and {Magnolia cordata}.
           {Magnolia conspicua} and {Magnolia purpurea} are
           cultivated shrubs or trees from Eastern Asia. {Magnolia
           Campbellii}, of India, has rose-colored or crimson
           flowers.
           [1913 Webster]
