About the
Magnolia x Ann :
The Ann Magnolia tree, Magnolia x Ann, is
a member of the 'Little Girl' series of
Magnolias that are the result of a cross
originally made at the U.S. National
Arboretum. 'Ann' develops a somewhat open
habit with deep purple-red, 7-9 inch petaled
flowers. Ann Magnolia trees are vigorous and
hardy. Best grown in normal garden soil in
full sun.
This magnolia was bred for late bloom
(mid-April to early May) to avoid the
hazards of late frost. It forms a shrubby
mound and has leathery green foliage. It has
lightly scented reddish-purple flowers that
emerge from beautiful, tapered buds. There
is often sporadic repeat bloom in
mid-summer. The flowers are large and
red-purple on both sides. |
