Magnolia cylindrica (true)

This is the true species, rather than the old hybrid long called cylindrica, which is now known as 'Pegasus'. A much taller, more upright tree, this is still not a large species, being up to 11m so far since its introduction in 1984. Masses of smallish fragrant white flowers with a subtle pink base are seen in spring, even on shaded specimens. Extremely hardy.
