Notes:


You can find this tree at the side of a sidewalk, between Benson and Kirkland Halls and not far from the garden club planting. It is similar to the many other large and old magnolias on campus, but it is noteworthy because of the statue of Margaret Branscomb under its branches. To learn more about her and her contributions to the campus, go to this tree's history page.
