Lily Magnolias are rounded, shrubby plants reaching 8-12' in height. The 3-4" wide flowers are vinous-purple outside and white inside. Jane has an erect growth habit for a Lily Magnolia. The FRAGRANT blooms on this tree is "TDF" - To-Die-For! Really, really gorgeous. Prune after flowering. Introduced by the National Arboretum as part of the 'The Girls' (occasionally called erroneously, Little Girls) series of magnolias. It blooms 2-4 weeks later, so it isn't damaged by frost nearly as often as the species.
