Magnolia seed pods

20 years ago

Does anyone know where I can sell some dried Magnolia pods? I am not particularly craft minded but I'm sure they can be used for wreaths, etc. I have LOTS of them. Thanks.

Hi Donald, I really don't have an answer for you but since no one has responded (I know how it feels, nobodys responded to mine either) I thought I would tell you that I also have a box of magnolia pods (I have 2 magnolia trees) and I intend to use them in large wreaths. I'll probably spray some of them and use them in Christmas wreaths. They're much too pretty to go into the compost pile! Some people would probably like to just put them into bowls for decoration, like we do with pine cones and pretty decorative balls. If I think of anything else, I'll let you know.

Donald and Gay,
This southern transplant would love to have some magnolia pods. I really do miss seeing the magnolias since I moved to NY from Louisiana. I wanted to decorate my dining room with magnolias when we bought our house up here but you guessed it...not available.
