What is this suggestive looking growth on my magnolia tree?

tree is about 12 years old and growing at about its northern limit.



It flowers well in the spring but this is the first time I have noticed this structure.

That's the fruit (not edible). When it matures, the scales will spread. Seeds will be inside.
