The genus name "Magnolia" is derived from the French botanist Pierre Magnol, who contributed significantly to the study of plants in the 17th century. The name was first used by the Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus in honor of Magnol in the mid-18th century. Magnolias are known for their large, fragrant flowers and are native to East Asia and the Americas. The name reflects both the beauty of the plant and the legacy of its early scientific study.
