Magnolia in human culture
- Magnolia as a named color historically enjoyed sporadic support in web browsers. In Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 it may sometimes be rendered a pale magenta. In Mozilla Firefox 2.0 it may sometimes appear grayish pink.
- In the UK, Magnolia paint is a neutral to warm white (as the petals in the picture of the plant), noted as being the 'standard' color of household paint, other than white.[4] However, the color called "Magnolia" in UK paint is closer to peach rather than the rose-lavender white of the web color. It is a ubiquitous color which is available for most type of paint.[5]
