Magnolia praecalva is a large forest tree from Southeast Asia, grown mainly for its timber in the wild. It is rarely grown as an ornamental, and care guidance is limited, so growing it is mostly a matter of matching its tropical forest conditions.
Magnolia praecalva is a species of flowering plant in the family Magnoliaceae. It is a tree native to Peninsular Malaysia, Sumatra, Thailand and Vietnam. In Vietnam, the species is found in the evergreen broadleaved forests of the High Plateau. It has suffered from population decline due to its exploitation for timber.
