The Mahogany Tree was a weekly [1] literary magazine published from January until December 1892. The magazine was based in Boston. [2]
The magazine was started by Mildred Aldrich, [3] and it was supposedly "devoted solely to the 'fine arts'."

Contributors comprised Philip Henry Savage, Ralph Adams Cram, [6] Louise Imogen Guiney [6] and F. Holland Day, [6] amongst others. The magazine was the first to publish the work of Willa Cather. [5] [7]
