    I have two mature magnolia trees and have never noticed clusters of red berries on them before this autunm.
    Is this some type of disease or virus??

    Magnolia ? Problem or Pretty :-)

    I have two mature Magnolia trees which look perfectly healthy. This is the first Autunm I have EVER seen clumps if red berries scattered throughout both trees.
    Is this some kind of disease or viral proscess??
    Are they suppose to produce these seeds every year? I've lived here for 7 years and never saw them

    No, it is producing seeds!
