Magnolia × 'Ann' is a compact hybrid that blooms late in spring, making it less susceptible to frost. Its large, cup-shaped flowers are a deep purplish red on the outside and lighter on the inside, appearing on the still-bare branches. Its bushy habit and prolonged flowering period make it an excellent choice for small gardens, isolated plantings, or flowerbeds. Very hardy and undemanding, it combines bright color, long-lasting blooms, and minimal maintenance in an affordable format.
