The magnolia is a distinctive evergreen tree with large, showy, fragrant flowers. The southern magnolia is the State Flower of Mississippi and Louisiana, and itself a Southern tradition.

Dr. Leonard McCoy, when influenced by the signal emitted by the probe on the second planet of the Taurean system, experienced an audio-visual suggestion of magnolias in blossom.
