The difference between magnolia and magnolia

1. Appearance Difference

1. Magnolia is a small tree or shrub. Its flowers and leaves are slightly smaller, and its calyx and petals are clearly distinguishable. The sepals of magnolia flowers are very large, generally lanceolate, and the petals are not pure white, but have a slight purple tint.

2. Magnolia is a relatively tall tree. Its flowers and leaves are relatively large. The flowers are white and the calyx is relatively small, so most people will not notice it. The leaves are papery, broadly obovate, obovate or obovate-elliptical, and about 10-15cm long.

2. Distinction between families and genera

The two plants belong to different families. The magnolia flower belongs to the Magnoliaceae family and the genus Magnolia, while the magnolia flower belongs to the Magnoliaceae family and the subgenus Magnolia.

3. Notes

Their appearance is very similar and it is generally difficult to distinguish them, but once you master the method, it is easy to distinguish them. They usually bloom in spring and are highly ornamental plants.
