Magnolia 'Elizabeth'

FamilyMagnoliaceae

Magnolia × 'Elizabeth' is one of the first yellow varieties to be introduced, still prized for its soft, fragrant blooms in shades of cream to pale yellow. Its flowers appear on the still-bare branches, creating an effect of lightness and purity. Its growth is moderate and its naturally balanced silhouette fits well in woodland gardens or large, structured spaces. Very hardy, it combines tradition, rare shade, and generous spring blooms in a format suitable for a wide variety of landscape styles.
