Floridata: Magnolia grandiflora Southern magnolia is a large, broad-leafed evergreen tree that can grow 60-90 ft (18-27 m) in height with a trunk up to 2-3 ft (0.6-0.9 m) in diameter. This is the immature fruit or "burr" of the southern magnolia. Southern magnolia should be a part of every cultivated landscape in zones 7-9 that is large enough for a full-size tree (folks farther north to Zone 5 should be able to find hardy cultivars for their areas too). www.floridata.com /ref/m/magno_g.cfm   (539 words)

Magnolia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Mississippi's state nickname is the "Magnolia State", because of the abundance of magnolias in the state. Magnolia contains the American evergreen species Magnolia grandiflora, which is of horticultural importance, especially in the United States, and Magnolia virginiana, the type species. Magnolia plumieri (1788) was published on a later date by Schwartz, and is treated as a later synonym, as are Magnolia fatiscens (1817; Richard), Talauma caerulea (Jaume St-Hilaire 1805) and Magnolia linguifolia (1822). en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Magnolia   (2350 words)

Magnolia (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Magnolia is a 1999 motion picture, written and directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, which tells the story of a peculiar interaction among several individuals during one apparently normal day in the San Fernando Valley, California. Interweaving nine separate yet connected storylines, Magnolia was self-consciously produced with heavy independent film influences, in a style quite far from what's currently common in mainstream Hollywood films —although it was well financed by New Line Cinema. Magnolia starts with an intro describing three events which set the mood for the movie by urging the audience to think about supposed coincidences which occur "all the time." The events, which are well-known urban legends, are: en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Magnolia_(movie)   (2039 words)

Review: Magnolia   (Site not responding. Last check: ) Magnolia is a fascinating and worthwhile motion picture that manages to keep viewers interested in the plights of ten different characters for nearly its full length - right up to and through the improbable climax. Now, Magnolia presents a slice-of-life look at a group of characters whose fates are intertwined even though their paths don't necessarily intersect during the course of this film.

Magnolia (1999): Jason Robards, Julianne Moore, Tom Cruise, Philip Seymour Hoffman - PopMatters Film Review And so, too, in Magnolia the atmospheric (and invisible) minutiae which produce the weather are repeated and reflected in the hidden webs of desire and experience which connect the various characters and their lives. After the many horrors of the past and their interconnections are revealed, after we have seen exactly how the "sins of the father" have been carried upon the sons and daughters, we are given a good old fashioned, Exodus-style plague of frogs falling from the skies. Magnolias philosophical ruminations on chance, interconnection, and causality, and on happiness, forgiveness, and redemption opens a door, if only for a brief time, onto a vision of subjectivity and the human condition rarely seen in film. www.popmatters.com /film/reviews/m/magnolia1.shtml   (1209 words)

Magnolia (1999) Actually, there is much to admire and cherish in `Magnolia.' Writer/director Paul Thomas Anderson has done a commendable job in putting on the screen a relatively unique vision – a qualification I feel forced to make because it does seem patently derived from much of the trailblazing work of director Robert Altman. Many viewers and critics have called `Magnolia' an artistic advancement, in both depth and scope, for Anderson, whose previous film was the similarly dense, moderately freeform `Boogie Nights.' I tend to disagree. In many ways, `Magnolia' is the kind of film that could easily serve as the basis for a lengthy doctoral dissertation for a student majoring in either filmmaking or sociology. www.imdb.com /title/tt0175880   (1318 words)

Magnolia Information One thing to consider in purchasing a magnolia is that if you don't see any of the type you want already growing in your area, maybe they aren't suitable for that area. Usually magnolias are showcased and sold when they are blooming, so check your local nurseries, and places such as Lowe's, Home Depot, and Wal-Mart during springtime and when they are blooming. about which magnolia cultivars will grow in your area or growing zone, which ones are available, and how to care for them would be to contact your county extension agent or visit a local nursery. home.att.net /~velvet-hammer/information.html   (1409 words)

The telling difference is that the Wilson magnolia's blossoms hang upside down (all the better to show their rose-crimson anthers), and therefore beg to be gazed up into.

Magnolia - Rotten Tomatoes Critics say Magnolia is an ambitious, lengthy work that ultimately succeeds due to the interesting stories and excellent ensemble performances.

Amazon.com: Magnolia (New Line Platinum Series): DVD: Tom Cruise,William H. Macy   (Site not responding. Last check: ) One of the best films of 1999, "Magnolia" conveys a moral without moralizing, is rich in metaphor and altogether captivating, with an ending that may take you aback, if indeed, you haven't been paying close attention (there are at least two clues during the film, admittedly obscure, but there nevertheless). Now that I've seen "Magnolia" on video and have finally been able to philosophically, intellectually and logically string together its elements, there is no doubt that this is one of the most wonderful accomplishments on film ever made. Magnolia is three hours long, and yet the film always seems to be at a pivotal moment and never section drags. www.amazon.com /Magnolia-New-Line-Platinum-Cruise/dp/B00003CWTI   (2489 words)
