What is the difference between magnolia and white magnolia
Today's focus is on introducing the difference between magnolia and white magnolia and the planting methods of orchid seeds in green plants and flowers. Let's follow the editor to see the specific content!
As we step into the late March, magnolias are in full bloom. On various streets, people often see magnolias, pink and white, which are very pleasing to the eye. When it comes to magnolias, it is necessary to mention magnolia. In ancient times, magnolia and white magnolia were collectively referred to as magnolia, and modern people often confuse magnolia and white magnolia, mistaking them for the same plant.
Next, let's distinguish between magnolia and white magnolia from three aspects: attributes, flower shapes, and blooming periods.
(Magnolia)
In terms of attributes, although they both belong to the magnolia family, magnolia is part of the magnolia subgenus of the magnolia family, while white magnolia belongs to the magnolia genus of the magnolia family. Magnolia is a tall tree, with the highest tree shape reaching about 25 meters, and magnolia wood can be used for furniture. White magnolia, on the other hand, is a shrub or small tree with a shorter and smaller shape, reaching a maximum of about 5 meters.
(White magnolia)
In terms of flower shapes, the sepals and petals of magnolia flowers are relatively similar and indistinguishable, with petals usually around 9. Some horticultural varieties of magnolia flowers can have up to 12-15 sepals and petals. Magnolia petals are white, often with a pink base, and appear oblong and inverted ovate.
White magnolia flowers have very distinct differences between sepals and petals, with usually 3 sepals and 6 petals. The outer surface of the petals is light purple-red, while the inside is white.
In terms of blooming periods, magnolias usually bloom earlier, starting to open in February and March and sometimes blooming again from July to September. White magnolias, however, do not bloom until April or May. If you see a magnolia-like flower tree in early spring, it can be basically judged as magnolia. However, the planting region can also affect the blooming period.
Now it is spring, and major parks are entering the flowering period. Magnolias, begonias, peonies, and cherry blossoms are all competing to bloom. Why not take advantage of your leisure time to enjoy the spring scenery.
The above is the specific introduction of the difference between magnolia and white magnolia and the planting methods of orchid seeds for reference by netizens.
