Magnolia
If rhododendrons are the "King of Shrubs", then magnolias are surely the "Queen of Trees! From the earliest blooms of Spring to the fragrant flowers of Summer, magnolias offer a wide selection of color and form. The past several decades have produced an explosion of new magnolia cultivars, beginning with the ground-breaking breeding work done at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Augie Kehr, David Leach, Phil Savage and Dennis Ledvina. The diversity of colors include white (mostly found in M. kobus, loebneri, denudata, virginiana and grandiflora. yellow (accuminata and its hybrids), pink (soulangeana). These are just a sampling of colors, species and breeders We like to think that we offer the largest selection of magnolias in the US. Most of our offerings are in 2 gallon pots and are budded(a type of grafting) onto cold-hardy and drought-tolerant M. kobus understock. The use of this understock produces healthy, fast growing trees with nice straight single trunks. A few of our offerings are grown on their own roots from cuttings, or from seed in the case of wild species. These are noted in the descriptions. Some of these varieties are extremely new and still quite rare, so we may only have a couple to offer, hence the higher prices.

MAGNOLIA 'Elizabeth'
Numerous butter-yellow, tulip shaped flowers open before the leaves on a fast-growing, wide upright tree. more info

MAGNOLIA 'Emma Cook'
From the same cross as 'Pristine' but 'Emma Cook' has white flowers flushed with lavender-pink at the base of the tepals. Her shapely form comes from the M. denudata parent. more info

MAGNOLIA 'Fancy Dude'
Our exclusive introduction for 2012! Some visiting Japanese nurserymen spotted this uniquely variegated individual in a batch of open pollinated 'Big Dude' seedlings. Leaves are bordered with a wide creamy wide margin, most showy in the spring. more info

MAGNOLIA 'Felicity'
(C8) We've tried and were unable to find a description of this plant. We've been told the flowers are pink. This is probably the first time this plant has been propagated, so you can be among the first to evaluate it. more info

MAGNOLIA 'Fireglow'
Dennis Ledvina intro- "Symmetrical, upright, single trunked tree with thick leathery leaves. Flowers produced well before the leaves open; six broad, bone white tepals, with vivid magenta-pink lower third and stripe to tip." more info

MAGNOLIA 'Flamingo'
Flamingo-pink tulips cover this tree just before the leaves come out, reminding us of the close magnolia relative Liriodendron, the tulip tree. 'Flamingo' forms a very symmetrical, pyramidal-shaped tree with excellent cold hardiness from the M.accuminat more info

MAGNOLIA 'Frank's Masterpiece'
This highly sought after tree has a strong central leader and branches that are semi-weeping. The large flowers are 10 to 11 inches across. Individual tepals are 5 inches long and 4 inches wide. The outside color of the tepals is very deep red purple and more info

MAGNOLIA 'Genie' PP20748
The result of 15 years breeding of M. soulangeana and M. lilliflora ‘Nigra’ which has resulted in a compact small tree which will reach possibly 3 metres in 10 years. It first flowered 2 years from seed with 6 flowers, producing over 100 flowers. more info

MAGNOLIA 'Gold Crown'
Flowers are 9 to 10 inches in diameter with 8 to 9 tepals of a deep yellow color (deeper than that of 'Sundance' or 'Elizabeth'). The plant is upright in habit, blooms late in the flowering season. (On order- ready for Fall 2011) more info

MAGNOLIA 'Gold Cup'
Light yellow, cup shaped flowers to 6" wide. A tetraploid plant, it exhibits very heavily textured and puckered foliage. The flowers are unique in their heavy substance and goblet shape, and they are late. thus avoiding frosts. more info

MAGNOLIA 'Golden Gift'
Prodigious numbers of 4.5 inch yellow flowers with faint green bases are produced in multiple terminal buds and axillary (along the stems) buds of this compact growing 8–10 feet selection. more info

MAGNOLIA 'Golden Rain'
Dennis writes: "This tetraploid cross of M. acuminata x 'Norman Gould' has medium yellow flowers with six very wide cup shaped tepals, that cascade downwards. The vigorous tall growing magnolia has shown tremendous hardiness". more info

MAGNOLIA 'Golden Sun'
"This hybrid has strong yellow 7" flowers with heavy substance. The flowers open flat. The tree is floriferous and vigorous, eight feet tall with dense foliage at eight years from seed. In Ohio, 'Golden Sun' blooms in mid-May before the leaves expand." more info

MAGNOLIA 'Green Bee'
Large flowers, appearing just before or together with the new leaves, are initially very green, turning bright yellow as flowers mature and more or less floppy with age. Upright pyramidal tree. for more info: http://www.arboretumwespelaar.be/ more info
