I'm sorry to tell you your magnolia seeds are dead! Magnolia seeds need
to be removed  from the pulp, washed, and kept slightly moist in a
baggy, stored in the fridge til spring (check occasionly for sprouting
in late winter), in spring plant seeds in a pot of good planting mix. If
they are viable, they should be up in several weeks.
