Flower symbolism dates back thousands of years. Just like flowers have their symbolic meanings, they also have strong secret messages behind them that make them so unique. The message behind the Magnolia flower is to always be stable in life and to go through life with your head up high. According to the Feng Shui, a magnolia planted in front of the house attracts the energy of pleasure and rest, and if it is planted behind the house symbolizes the slow but sure acquisition of wealth. Magnolias were thought to be the perfect symbols of womanly beauty and gentleness. They are symbols of the feminine side in every person and females in general.
