MAGNOLIA

Wonderful flowering trees which in the Spring probably eclipse all others for the glory of their blooms. Mostly of small to barely medium sized, they
do well on moisture retentive reasonably drained soils and appreciate some protection from late Spring frosts for the best effect. Our range now includes some very choice, unusual and sought after newer varieties.

Betty 4’ A small compact hybrid that is outstanding for its long display
of large deep purple blooms. A free and reliable Magnolia for the smallest gardens.

Elizabeth 5’ A new variety who’s release was greatly anticipated as the first true yellow Magnolia. The pale primrose coloured blooms exceed all expectations and carry a sweet, light scent. Blooming May- June, demand will exceed supply. Early ordering advised.

Heaven Scent 6’ As the name would imply this Gresham hybrid is richly scented. The large pale pink blooms are flushed a deeper shade on the outer petals. A magnificent Magnolia which flowers at an early age;
irresistible.
