Commercial Uses

Fresh magnolias can make great gifts. They are often used in wedding & birthday bouquets. Sometimes, you can be a florist by creating your magnolia bouquet with some greenery from the garden. You can keep the flowers in water as long as possible & wrap the ends in a wet paper towel or sponge. Ensure the stems are put inside the craft paper, where you can wrap them up, and tie the bottom with a ribbon, twine or a string, allowing the blooms to reach the fresh air. It is not used in bouquets, but also traditional home decors and wedding floral arrangements.
