Magnolia Yellow Bird - 140-180cm, 10lt

Magnolia Yellow Bird is a deciduous tree of upright columnar habit with pyramidal to rounded crown, elliptic green leaves, golden-brown in autumn. Beautiful, fragrant, goblet-shaped, lemon-yellow flowers bloom in late spring, as the leaves emerge. Magnolia Yellow Bird thrives in fertile, rich, slightly acidic, moist, and well-drained soils. Doesn’t like too dry or too wet soils. It prefers full sun to partial shade, in a position sheltered from harsh winds. Since it blooms later in spring, it is less likely for its buds to be damaged by frost. Once established it is difficult to transplant. Low maintenance plant, doesn’t require pruning. Magnolia Yellow Bird is a hybrid cross between M. acuminata var. subcordata and M. x brooklynensis ‘Evamaria’. One of the best yellow Magnolias. It’s an attractive, flowering tree, perfect as a specimen plant or small shade tree. Great for shrub borders or informal hedges and screens. Suitable for growing in containers.
