Hardiest Magnolia grandifloras (southern mags) are "Bracken's Brown 
Beauty" and "Edith Bogue" according to lab tests published in 
Horticulture magazine a couple of years ago.  Large (>5 gal.) plants have 
a better chance of survival but are difficult to buy mail-order.  There 
is also a hybrid M. virginiana/grandiflora which was offered by Carroll 
Gardens at least a few years back.
