Description:

A beautiful magnolia whose large flowers are a stunning presentation of yellow, green, purple, and rose hues; blooms late in the season; has a tidy oval habit, eventually reaching 30 feet; an ideal landscape or garden accent

Ornamental Features

Woodsman Magnolia is covered in stunning fragrant rose cup-shaped flowers with purple overtones and chartreuse streaks held atop the branches from mid to late spring. It has green deciduous foliage. The large pointy leaves turn coppery-bronze in fall.

Landscape Attributes

Woodsman Magnolia is a deciduous tree with a shapely oval form. Its relatively coarse texture can be used to stand it apart from other landscape plants with finer foliage.

This is a relatively low maintenance tree, and should only be pruned after flowering to avoid removing any of the current season's flowers. It has no significant negative characteristics.

Woodsman Magnolia is recommended for the following landscape applications;

  • Accent
  • Shade

Planting & Growing

Woodsman Magnolia will grow to be about 30 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 20 feet. It has a low canopy with a typical clearance of 4 feet from the ground, and should not be planted underneath power lines. It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for 50 years or more.

This tree does best in full sun to partial shade. It requires an evenly moist well-drained soil for optimal growth, but will die in standing water. It is not particular as to soil type, but has a definite preference for acidic soils. It is quite intolerant of urban pollution, therefore inner city or urban streetside plantings are best avoided. Consider applying a thick mulch around the root zone in winter to protect it in exposed locations or colder microclimates. This particular variety is an interspecific hybrid.
