Magnolias are ancient trees. Their lineage stretches back to fossilized samples dated at some 2 million years old. They have been theorized to have been around for longer than bees, as one of very few flowers dotting the landscape as beetles were the best insects to conduct pollination at the time. This particular plant is the Magnolia x soulangeana, or saucer magnolia. Originally bred by a French plantsman in the early 1820s, it flowers early in the spring, and was planted all over pastoral landscapes in the British Isles. As Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux sought to turn Central Park into an English romantic pastoral landscape, it was an easy choice to place this plant in the pre-planned park. It is an imported species to this continent, yet is a prominent feature within Central Park, and an example of its nature, nonetheless.
