Magnolia paint colour may be the byword for bland when it comes to interior design but there is nothing remotely bland about the tree. Blooms range from the purest white through to ivory, yellow and pale pink down to the darkest pinky-purple flowers that are gorgeous in bud as well as when open.There are around 120 species, the majority of which originate from East and South East Asia, with others from North, Central and South America as well as the West Indies. They are deciduous or evergreen and form small to large trees and shrubs. They aregenerally spring-flowering, with the flowers appearing before the leaves. But there are also some summer-flowering magnolias.
