MAGNOLIA grandiflora 'Kay Parris' |
||||
|
Hybridized/Introduced By: Kevin Parris Parentage: 'Little Gem' x (probably)'Bracken's Brown Beauty' Description: Considered to be the very best of the grandiflora cultivars by Pat McCracken who has a collection of 150 varieties. Resembles its mother, 'Little Gem', but much nicer. Extremely glossy, bright green leaves with deep orangy-brown furry undersides, unlike the scant fuzz on 'Little Gem'. Flowers for many months. Growth is faster and habit is upright and does not fall apart like 'Little Gem'. The father is suspected to be 'Bracken's Brown Beauty,' so it could be quite cold hardy as well. | ||||
