Project: Conservation of threatened mountain species.
Magnolias are unique natural treasures. Some of them are exclusive from Cuba although they are not especially abundant in the Island. In the wild they are rather scarce, and their exceptional durable wood have been exploited for years. This was the reason that took us towards the mountains of Eastern Cuba to monitor the populations of five Cuban species of magnolia and find new individuals.
