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 'Tommy's Fragrant Heaven'
Extremely floriferous with huge uppright bicolored flowers, white with strong purple flushing at their bases. Flowers have an excellent strong citrus fragrance. Flowers open before and after the leaves. more info

MAGNOLIA 'Ultimate Yellow'
Yellow flowers 6 inches in diameter with six wide petals showing slight green on the outer surfaces. The flower shows a good, open-cupped form. more info

MAGNOLIA 'Vulcan'
This variety has some of the most brilliant reddish flowers of any magnolia. It can be a bit slow starting, and hardiness could be better. more info

MAGNOLIA 'Woodsman'
One of the most unusually colored magnolias, chocolate brown and rose. Blooms late to avoid frost damage. more info

MAGNOLIA 'Yellow Bird'
Intense yellow color and compact, upright shape of its flowers. Blooms several weeks later than 'Elizabeth', so it is less likely to get frosted. Flowers are larger and a deeper yellow than acuminata. more info

MAGNOLIA 'Yuchelia'

MAGNOLIA sieboldii X grandiflora 'Samuel Sommers'
Evergreen foliage shaped mostly like sieboldii, but whole plant more closely resembles grandiflora. more info

MAGNOLIA acuminata
The modest-sized greenish-yellow flowers are followed by seedpods("cucumbers") which are eagerly foraged by birds and small mammals. The native North American species itself is a worthy addition to the landscape. more info

MAGNOLIA acuminata 'Blue Opal'
(C) Slate blue flower buds open to a bluish green and then finally to green and yellow. Striking in bud and early bloom! more info

MAGNOLIA acuminata 'Brenda'
Currently the deepest yellow flowered magnolia. Flower is the same size as 'Butterflies', but a much brighter color. The leaves are thick and dark. more info

MAGNOLIA acuminata var subcordata 'Skyland's Best'
(FC) Bright yellow flowers and blooms two times per year (early spring and late summer). Growth habit is compact and pyramidal. more info

MAGNOLIA denudata 'Gere'
Deliciously fragrant, large, vase shaped, pure white flowers adorn this shrubby tree in late spring. Blooms 2-3 weeks later than either typical M. denudata or M. x soulangeana, thus avoiding the worst of late frosts. more info

MAGNOLIA grandiflora '24 Below'
Reported to be uninjured at -24 degrees F. The tree has a broadly conical growth habit and can ultimately grow 40' high by 30' wide. Evergreen leaves are dark green and glossy with rusty-brown indumentum on the undersides. more info

MAGNOLIA grandiflora 'Brackens Brown Beauty'

(C8) A compact and pyramidal growth habit. The flowers are creamy white globe-shaped with fantastic fragrance. The leaff tops are dark shiny green and the backs are covered with rusty-brown felt. more info
