Magnolia coco, the coconut magnolia, is a species of flowering plant in the family Magnoliaceae, native to southern China, Taiwan, and northern Vietnam.[1] A small tree from 7–13 ft (2–4 m) in the garden, it is hardy to zone 9, and can also be kept as a houseplant.[2] It is incorrectly called Magnolia pumila in some sources.[2] In Cambodia, it is called yi hoob flower [ផ្កាយីហ៊ុប].
