Does anyone know the name of this tree? [I Like Trees]

@Lilymoon The Magnolia has large, shiny and dark leaves (Unless there are multiple sub-species) The scent is incredible!

@Lilymoon Right. I’m used to the white ones, but they don’t look quite like your photo either.

@bijouxbroussard yeah these ones are def different. The magnolias are beautiful too.

@Lilymoon I'm going with it🙂

@Virgo79 Thank you!

@Lilymoon well you know, someone had to do it😂

@NightsWatch that's funny. 🤣

@Lilymoon 😁

@Lilymoon guhhh...well maybe that tree should have an "accident" 😈

@MrBlueGuy yeah don't think I haven't thought about it. 🤣

@Lilymoon hehe xD

@AntisocialTroll yeah and the smell is beautiful

@Lilymoon Short and Sweet :)
My mom used to pick those blooms and put them in her car so it would make the inside of her car smell good :-)

@Snuffy1957 not a bad idea I should bring some in the house.

@Lilymoon She did that too :)

@Spokeskitties75 maple syrup?
HMMMM... now you have my interest piqued LOL

@Spokeskitties75

@Lilymoon now if we could just make it alcoholic

I don’t make things up (too often).

If memory from my college dendrology class serves me well, that’s what I would think. @Lilymoon

@Noble ahh ok yeah I looked it up...I think this is a cucumber magnolia...didn't know they existed! 😁

Good deal! I love helping solve mystery’s. @Lilymoon

@Lilymoon don't try to dissect it to find out information... The information is not the tree... So sayeth Yoda

Enjoy the tree 🤗

PS I believe coveffe is is need of a new home .....

@ozgirl512 I'mma enjoy.. ;)

@Lilymoon 🤗

@Pretzel Ahhh ok... well you could be right. They do smell like lilacs. 👌

@Lilymoon and it doesn't matter what you call it - it still won't move or talk back :)

@Pretzel

@SW-User yeah I'm pretty sure it's not, but you never know. haha it sure does smell good.

@SW-User Magnolia leaves are large, dark green and waxy. One of my favorites!

@Crazywaterspring you think it's magnolia? doesn't look like one. 🤔

@SW-User Yup .. the consensus is it's a Japanese lilac. 👍

@Lilymoon ohhh cool

@Azlotto hmmm yep it's similar. but I think dogwood has flowers whereas these are blossoms.
