Probably the most popular and commonly grown deciduous Magnolia variety, Magnolia x soulangeana has very large, tulip shaped white flowers that are flushed purple/pink at the base. The stunning flowers bloom in late spring and are also highly fragrant.
Deciduous dark green, glossy foliage begins bronzed red in spring, maturing to green in summer and fading to yellow in autumn. Magnolia soulangeana forms a rounded, spreading shrub or tree suitable for a small garden. Expect a height and spread of 6 x 4 metres in 20 years.
Also known as a Tulip, Saucer or Chinese Magnolia, Magnolia soulangeana prefers full sun or partial shade in a well-drained soil. Whilst it is more tolerant of wind than some other Magnolia varieties, it is best to avoid exposed positions.
