Why has the beautiful white blossom on my magnolia tree gone brown overnight?

I'm afraid it's because of the cold weather and strong winds.

Magnolias don't normally flower quite this early but the very mild Winter has brought them into flower and the latest bout of cold weather has killed them. They won't recover this year but you should have a good display next year. If you have some unopened buds, you may just have a few late blooms.

just likely to be frost damage it will not damage the plant long term, it always seems to happen its either wind or frost that gets magnolis flowerrs
Reply:Because it was pollinated, completing the first stage of its flowerly duty, seeds will follow. Natural progression of propagation of its species.
Reply:They do this when it too cold for them. BEcause of the extra warm weather they hav blossomed early and now the cold has got to them.
Reply:To much sun and lack of moisture try spraying /hosing the tree when the weather has cooled down.
Reply:Johny is correct it's frost damage due to the late cold snap.
Reply:They don't hold their flowers very long. Mine does the exact same thing. It'll bloom again. Bye
