President Trump on Tuesday did the honors of planting a “MAGAnolia” sapling and descendant of the 200-year-old “Jackson Magnolia” tree on the White House Lawn to replace the original historic White House fixture.
The White House shared photos and video of the President digging the hole and planting the new tree, which they dubbed the “new MAGAnolia sapling.”

Per USA Today:
The White House has planted a new sapling to replace an ancient magnolia named for President Andrew Jackson.
The nation’s seventh president brought the seeds of a southern magnolia tree from his home near Nashville, Tennessee, to the White House lawn in the early 1800s, according to the National Park Service.
The tree, part of a group of magnolias near the South Portico, was determined to be a safety threat, according to a team of experts. They included master arborists, the National Park Service, the White House Grounds Superintendent, the White House Executive Residence, the Offices of the President and the First Lady, and the Secret Service.
Jackson, whose nickname was Old Hickory was inspired by his tough-as-a-tree demeanor, planted the tree in memory of his wife, Rachel, who died before he took office in 1829, according to the park service.
After the event, the White House commemorated the moment on X with pure gold, commenting, “President Donald J. Trump planted a new MAGAnolia sapling at the White House.” It is unclear at this time if the term “MAGAnolia” will play into any official renaming of the tree.
