Magnolia x soulangeana is a true landscape show-stopper with year-round interest. This popular flowering, deciduous multi-trunk magnolia tree adds timeless beauty to the California landscape. In early spring, the spectacular pink tulip-shaped buds open wide to reveal large, white-blushed, saucer-shaped, fragrant flowers on bare branches. The rounded growth habit and size of the Saucer Magnolia make it an excellent shade tree or large shrub, serving as a focal point in the landscape.
Also known as Tulip Magnolia or Chinese Magnolia, Magnolia x soulangeana (sometimes spelled soulangiana) is a moderately growing deciduous tree that reaches 20 to 25 ft. tall and wide. Bright green leaves emerge after the flowering period and mature to a lush dark green by summer. In the fall, the foliage turns golden brown before being shed, revealing the Saucer Magnolia’s silvery-gray bark. Under optimal conditions, it grows 1-2 ft./year.
