    This hardy Japanese Magnolia remains among the most popular. In April, before foliage emerges, its pink buds open to double white fragrant flowers of 25-30 petals, 3-4 inches in diameter. An upright and densely branched plant, it has dark green foliage that shifts to bronze in fall. Plant in a protected area away from south exposure. Tolerates heat but prefers peaty soils.
