Magnolia ‘Genie’

A fabulous new variety with deliciously dark flowers bred by Vance Hooper in New Zealand. Black-red buds open to rounded 15cm wide goblets of intensely deep red-purple in April, but are seen over many weeks in spring. Flowering starts as early as 1 year after grafting and plants make a compact, upright, very small tree or large shrub to about 3m in ten years. Happy in most soils, though less so on thin dry chalk.
