The Mississippi quarter features the state flower, combining the blossoms and leaves of two magnolias. Although there are several varieties of magnolia found throughout the world, it is the southern magnolia, or Magnolia grandiflora, that is native to the southeastern United States. It has large, showy white flowers as big as 15 inches across, they are named for the famed 18th century French botanist Pierre Magnol. Mississippi adopted it as the state flower in 1952. I finish this Pendant with a Sterling Silver Pendant Bail which will fit 3mm or smaller necklaces. I also make these cut-outs available with or without the state name,"MISSISSIPPI", cut-out across the top. This is the Cut-Out only and includes a black velveteen bag for safekeeping...most common for Golf Markers.
