Magnolia yunnanensis is a species of tree in the family Magnoliaceae, native to evergreen broad-leaved forests of southern China and Vietnam.[2][3]

Richard Figlar notes that Magnolia yunnanensis is "often cultivated as street trees in their native Yunnan because of their 'Gallery Pear-type' growth habit and their exceptionally glossy evergreen foliage". He also notes that "their flowers are not as profuse and are less showy than those of other magnolia species".[4]
