Magnolia boliviana

Magnolia boliviana is a large tree of the Magnolia family from the rainforests of the eastern Andean foothills of Bolivia, reaching about 30 m with white flowers and large fruit. Like most wild magnolias it is a big canopy tree, so it suits warm, wet, frost-free gardens with room to grow rather than small spaces.
