Description
Zen Magnolia by Jenny Rainbow.
Zen Magnolia or Magnolia Zenii found in China is home to more species of hardy ornamental plants than any other country in the world, and many western botanical gardens have long histories of introducing them into cultivation.
The rare, sweetly fragrant, early flowering magnolia was introduced from China in 1977. From fuzzy buds, 10 cm thick, the creamy white petaled flowers are marked with a purple/pink streak that starts at the base of the peddle and fades midway up. The leaves are dark green and smooth on the top side and pale green on the undersides with fuzzy haired veins.These leaves are moderately narrow for a magnolia and are used in Traditional Chinese Medicine and perfumes. The Magnolia grows up to 12 by 6 meters round and up to 16-23 feet tall with gray bark and purplish twigs. Silky hairs cover the winter buds and flowers are highly fragrant, white with purple at the base, Blooming in March to April.
