The blossom , from a Southern Magnolia, Magnolia grandiflora, growing next to my home, is about 8 inches across (20 cm) and as I made the image the blossom filled the air around me with a powerful, lemony fragrance. Magnolia flowers are wonderful! Magnolia blossoms grow at the end of a tree's branches. They possess 3 sepals and 6-12 petals. You may have problems finding this species' sepals, however, because they look like the petals.
People who study the evolution of flowering plants say that magnolia flowers are similar to some of the very first flowers. They're not the most primitive surviving flower type (waterlilies are often thought to be more primitive), but they're very, very primitive.
