MAGNOLIA grandiflora 'Pocono' |
||||
|
Hybridized/Introduced By: Bruce Keyser Description: Discovered at a home in Cherryville, PA in the foothills of the Pocono Mountains by horticulturist Bruce Keyser who noticed the leaves never seemed to get winter burned. Bruce spoke to the homeowner about the tree, who told him it had been there when he bought the home 40 years ago, and confirmed the foliage had withstood being burned by bad winters. The original tree is about 25 x 12 feet, and doesn't lose branches under the weight of snow. Leaves are green, without the brown indumentum on the underside of some other grandiflora varieties. Flowers are creamy white, very fragrant and about 8 inches across in July. | ||||
