 DESCRIPTION

This magnolia is a cross of crosses ... mathematically it is: (magnolia liliflora x magnolia cylindrica) x magnolia „Ruby“ , by August Kehr (1997). The result of this rather bizarre looking equation is an exquisite speciality which keeps up to its name and blooms all season long. The flowers are small, bright to deep purple and never seem to open completely. They are born beside each leaf bud as the branches develop. The leaves are dark green, rather stiff for a deciduous plant and wavy. This variety forms a dense shrub already when young. Its name is bound to be changed in the future. It needs fertile, moist and permeable soil that is acidic (needs peat). Protect from strong winds. Its maximum height for Central Europe has not been discovered yet. Very hardy.
