Unlike most angiosperms, whose flower parts are in whorls (rings), the Magnoliaceae have their stamens and pistils in spirals on a conical receptacle. [3] .

Magnoliids, Magnoliidae or Magnolianae are a clade of flowering plants. With more than 10,000 species, including magnolias, nutmeg, bay laurel, cinnamon, avocado, black pepper, tulip tree and many others, it is the third-largest group of angiosperms after the eudicots and monocots. [3] .
Magnolia tree. Magnolia is a genus of about 210 to 340 species. The Angiosperm taxonomical names Magnoliophyta ( division) and Magnoliopsida ( class) come from this genus. Charles Plumier gave a flowering tree from the island of Martinique the genus name Magnolia, after French botanist Pier Magnol . Magnolia is an ancient genus.
Dicotyledonous plants (Class Magnoliopsida) are thought to be the most primitive flowering plants. They are defined by several characteristics. Similar to gnetophytes, all dicots germinate producing two seed leaves, hence dicotyledons. All dicots have other similar characteristics.

Flowering plant. Amborella: the oldest surviving Angiosperm. Flowering plants are plants that bear flowers and fruits. Most land plants today are flowering plants ( Angiosperm or Magnoliophyta ). Together with the gymnosperms they make up the seed plants. They differ from the gymnosperms in that angiosperms have flowers, and have enclosed ovules.
