When I see　the flowers of Magnolia at the beginning of Spring, I feel “Spring has come” every year.

Actually Magnolia blooms earlier than Cherry、so truly it doesn’t flower at exact Spring season. But Magnolia’s buds are growing at the time, I can realize “ the outside is getting lighter than before when I am on my way home after working”

So I feel something Spring at surroundings a little bit at a time.

The flowers and trees of Magnolia grow big enough, you can see those from distance. When I see that residents plant Magnolia at their garden, I have always felt envy.

Because they can observe Spring is coming. Magnolia composes to people and holds them gently . It has the language of flowers.

What is the Magnolia meaning? If you know it, you look forward to coming Spring.

7 methods for having happy life using Magnolia meaning

Love for Nature

The Magnolia blooms a variety of petals such as purple, pink and white all together into the sky at the beginning of Spring. It is magnificent, so you see it is singing in praise of nature. It grows big enough easily, you can observe the buds swell slowly even you are at across the road. And you see the petals from far away.

It is hard to look another flowers besides Magnolia because of still chilly season.

The figure stands with dignity at the chilly weather under the sky, so the language of flower is called ”love for Nature”

Continuousness

The genus of Magnolia is to be said the oldest flowering trees on earth.

Because the kind of Magnolia’s fossils was dug from geological formation of the age of dinosaurs. The history of the species is ancient, it has bloomed like today’s flowers since a hundred million years ago. I have never imagine such a long time.

Never changes the figure, I feel it is so strong. Something is always changing in this world, but Magnolia has been blooming as the same from a hundred million years ago.

Sublimity

The Magnolia’s origin is China. Chinese used it as a natural medicine before.

And it is valued highly as a noble flower like Lotus an Orchid.

The flower of Magnolia is resemble in Orchid, so is called “Magnolia Orchid (Mokuran)”.

But the name is changed “Mokuren (Magnolia Lotus)” because it is more similar to Lotus than Orchid. It is said so, Mokuren(Magnolia Lotus) has a dignity atmosphere like Lotus flowers in heaven.

It has longer history than mankind and provides deep blessing. That is Magnolia meaning.

Noble heart

Magnolia’s petals are used perfume’s raw materials. Actually, it is different from typical Magnolia that you see anywhere. It’s called “Taisanboku”, a kind of genus of Magnolia.

This Magnolia’s smell is like “Jasmine” which has sweet aroma and ”Orangeflower (Nerori)” or “Lemon” that have citrus scent. Also it is alike the smell of “Iran Iran”, which is stately fragrance. This smell is gorgeous and elegant.

Elegant smell, like lotus flowers in world above, so it is named flower meaning “Noble heart”

Mercy

I can relax when I look Magnolia. The season from February to March is meeting and farewell in Japan when you see Magnolia flowers. There is a hope to new situation, but also is anxiety to unknown world. Other people may think something new, but nothing is changed for myself. When I am on my way to work and look Magnolia ,I feel it says take it easy, you don’t have to hurry. Magnolia meaning “Mercy” is symbolized the Magnolia’s open and natural.

Blessing

The point of buds certainly turns toward North. Because the south side of buds swells plumply due to sunlight. If you see the point of buds you can get direction correctly, so it called “Compass flower”. Mountaineers see those as a landmark .

Meaning “Blessing” is expressed because Magnolia tells guide post.

Why don’t you see them and observe a direction of buds? When you are in town you may lose sense of direction, and which way is North. It is important that you make sure where you are.

Solemn

The petals of Magnolia are fineness and big, actually those came out 3 of sepals and 6 of petals. Even you are staring at them, it’s hard to understand which sepals or petals are.

Flowers run dry after 3 or 4days. It’s pretty short. When petals fall down to the ground, it sounds. That is like saying “I’m here” I feel.

Magnolia is fuss-free tree, form of tree keeps beautifully and smells good, so people plant easily as a garden tree. But I feel that draws the line at another garden trees.

That means exactly “Solemn”

I wrote 7 Magnolia meaning. What do you think of them?

Magnolia is a ordinary tree and you can see it everywhere. There is an impression it is more simple than Cherry trees or Japanese apricot trees at Spring season. But it holds people gently and exists in the world from far distant past. It is longer history than mankind. When you see Magnolia, why don’t you meet face to face with bringing back to memory of the meaning. You can get the power of Magnolia which has strength of continent and feel a big heart of it. Also the elegant aroma gives you hearty power.
