The ephemeral beauty of the magnolia

The ephemeral beauty of the magnolia

The beauty and vigor of its flowers captivates any spectator, who enjoys the spectacle of its large and bright petals without being aware that they have an ephemeral life. This is the magnolia tree, a tree capable of turning the defect into virtue and give the feeling of being always flowery, because for each flower that dies, several new ones see the light of the sun.

In our greenhouses we raise and take care of this plant, which has a wide range of varieties that flourish in the seasons of the year, which is very resistant to low temperatures and which surprises with the splendor with which they shine when it is cold.

It is a plant that hides a great secret in its origins: it is a living fossil. Although some studies place the first specimens of magnolias more than 5 million years ago, species with 20 million years ago have been proposed, which made it the oldest flower plant.
