Banana Magnolia- think the botanical name is Michelia Figo. Look for one with the name Skinners in the name- it is a better strain.
If you have never smelled this plant, you are in for a treat. I am big on fragrant flowers...most all others pale in comparison. So powerful it will knock you on your can. When people visit my home and smell this, they are stunned! Sadly, I do not believe folks in zone 6 or above can grow this.

Vibernum Carlisii...uhmmmmm. Now THAT is one most people in most zones can grow- and should.
