Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A fine and choice Magnolia! From intense bright-green buds deep-yellow flowers open floriferously on this lovely small tree. S/M

By: Forestfarm

This very floriferous tree is regarded as excellent! The deep canary-yellow flowers have narrow tepals that open just as the foliage starts to open, making the tree look like it's covered in glowing yellow candles. Heavy textured foliage begins a rich bronze-purple. Fast, upright grower to 30'. A lovely burst of sun for your yard! (M. x brooklynensis 'Woodsman' x M. 'Gold Star'.)
