MAGNOLIA X `GENIE 7G

Magnolia soulangeana x liliflora ‘Genie’ is the result of 15 years of breeding resulting in a compact, small tree maturing at perhaps 10-13 feet tall. Sensational black-red buds open to small globular tulip-shaped blooms of deep rich maroon-purple on both surfaces. ‘Genie’ has lightly scented blooms from early spring to early summer, and mid to late summer where conditions are not too dry.
