The is a book called "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn" (or something close).
That tree is a Magnolia, and gave name to the Magnolia Center. I always
imagined it as a Southern, even though I know they aren't supposed to
survive (all the way) up there.
Does anybody know what species of Magnolia that tree is?
Lisa, are you with us?
