Champa (Magnolia champaca), formerly Michelia champaca, is a tall evergreen tree prized across India for its richly fragrant golden-orange flowers. The glossy lance-shaped leaves form a dense, upright crown, while the blooms appear chiefly through the warmer and monsoon months, perfuming the air at dawn and dusk. Sacred in Hindu and Buddhist tradition, the flowers are used in garlands, temple offerings and to make the famous champaca attar. Native to the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia, it suits tropical and subtropical gardens, growing into a handsome specimen or shade tree in deep, moist, well-drained soil.
