From the look of them they are high quality plants. I will certainly recommend you to other plant lovers."

Magnolias

Magnolias
LARGE and SPECIMEN sized magnolias are almost all grafted plants. Many are also very rare. LARGE plants are 2-3 year old grafts and SPECIMEN plants 3-5 year old grafts. Different Magnolia varieties grow at very different speeds and therefore the size of a LARGE or a SPECIMEN plant and the exact pot size it is delivered in can vary markedly for plants of identical age.

LARGE plants may vary in size according to variety (and also the time of year) from less than 2 feet to 4 feet in 3, 5 or 7.5 litre pots. SPECIMEN plants are usually (but not always) between 4 feet and 8 feet in height in 10, 15 or 20 litre pots. Magnolias do grow very quickly in a single season but do please ring to check the exact size of your chosen variety if you so wish. If we are unable to offer a LARGE sized plant we may well also have smaller plants at a lower price.

MAGNOLIA acuminata 'Blue Opal'
Spectacular blue buds turn dark yellow as they open. This is a unique colour in the magnolia world
MAGNOLIA acuminata 'Koban Dori'
Soft canary-yellow blooms which open as the leaf appears in spring. Its neat pyramidical habit and restricted overall size makes it very suitable for suburban gardens
MAGNOLIA 'Apollo'
Rich violet-purple flowers at first turning purple-rosy-violet later. Highly scented
MAGNOLIA 'Black Tulip'
The darkest purple-red flowered magnolia before the arrival of M.'Genie'
MAGNOLIA 'Butterflies'
A hyrid between M.acuminata and M.denudata with rich yellow flowers and red stamens
MAGNOLIA 'Caerhays Belle'
A hybrid raised at Caerhays Castle with huge saucer-shaped salmon-pink flowers
MAGNOLIA campbellii subsp. mollicomata 'Lanarth'
Large cyclamen-purple flowers of this subspecies of M. mollicomata raised at Lanarth
MAGNOLIA 'Daphne'
In our opinion this is easily the best and darkest yellow yet to appear on the market. The flowers do come out with the leaves most years but this is genuinely a plant for the smaller garden. A triumph for Philippe de Spoelbergh's magnolia breeding in Belgium.
MAGNOLIA delavayi
Striking grey leaves and large scented creamy yellow flowers. Very scarce and difficult to propagate
MAGNOLIA denudata
 AWARD

MAGNOLIA denudata  >

Lily tree, Yulan
Scented pure white cup-shaped flowers
MAGNOLIA 'Elizabeth'
Cup-shaped clear primrose-yellow flowers before and with the new leaves
MAGNOLIA 'Genie'
This is the best new magnolia introduction from the point of view of colour to be seen in the UK for many years. Bred by Vance Hooper in New Zealand this soulangeana hybrid flowers very young and appears not to grow too big. The flowers are even darker than M.'Black Tulip' in bud and open an exquisite dark burgundy-red which they retain until they drop. Reserve one quickly as this will sell out very rapidly once you see if for yourself
MAGNOLIA grandiflora 'Exmouth'
 AWARD

MAGNOLIA grandiflora 'Exmouth'  >

Bull bay, Exmouth magnolia, Loblolly magnolia
Large fragrant creamy yellow flowers last summer and autumn
MAGNOLIA grandiflora 'Goliath'

MAGNOLIA grandiflora 'Goliath'  >

Bull bay, Loblolly magnolia
Globular flowers in late summer and autumn with broader and shorter leaves than 'Exmouth'
MAGNOLIA grandiflora 'Little Gem'

MAGNOLIA grandiflora 'Little Gem'  >

Bull bay, Loblolly magnolia
Narrow columnar habit and small white flowers. Leaves heavily felted rust.
MAGNOLIA 'Heaven Scent'
Gresham hybrid with goblet-shaped flowers pink outside and white inside. Strongly lavender scented
MAGNOLIA x loebneri 'Merrill'
Large white fragrant flowers
MAGNOLIA 'Lois'
Clear primrose flowers without a tendency to fade. Just as good in Burncoose Gardens as M. ‘Daphne’
MAGNOLIA 'March-till-Frost'
As its name implies this magnolia continues to produce irregular flowers right through the season. The first flowers are usually pale pink but the later ones are usually darker
MAGNOLIA 'Mark Jury'
One of the very largest flowering magnolias. A Jury hybrid with rich pink flowers with the upper surface being cream with a hint of lavender
MAGNOLIA sieboldii
Fragrant white flowers with purple centres
MAGNOLIA x soulangeana 'Brozzonii'
Large elongated white flowers shaded purple at the base
MAGNOLIA x soulangeana 'Rustica Rubra'
Rich rosy-red cup-shaped flowers
MAGNOLIA 'Star Wars'
Free-flowering form with star-shaped bright pink flowers. One of the most popular of the new crop of New Zealand hybrids which grows quickly and flowers at a young age
MAGNOLIA stellata
 AWARD

MAGNOLIA stellata  >

Star magnolia
White star-shaped flowers. All flower FEB-APR
MAGNOLIA stellata 'Royal Star'
