Magnolia Yellow Bird - Tulip Tree - 100-120cm tall

Product ref: BR5D003D

Availability: Out of stock

Magnolia Yellow Bird is a very special hard to come by variety with bright yellow-cream flowers that appear from huge goblet shaped flower buds throughout Spring - a signal that warmer weather has finally arrived after a chilly winter.

Later flowering than many Magnolia varieties, it generally starts in late April and continues right up to early summer. This blooming period comes as a bonus in gardens that are prone to late frosts as it means the flowers are not affected by any late cold snaps in spring.

The glorious flowers, large in size - 6-7inches, are carried on robust compact growing small trees, generally reaching 2-3 metres tall over time.

This Special tree has been carefully grown to have a clear stem and standard habit with a nice trunk that is starting to branch to produce a head of foliage, branches and blooms. Leave to it's own devices to form a large shrub or small tree, or prune hard after flowering each year to keep as a compact miniature.

Very unusual, particularly supplied as a this unique standard form, Yellow Birds flowers appear as bright golden goblets that will fade to cream as they age, providing a bright and unusual appearance. These star over the plants for several weeks before making way for the foliage. A truly magnificent variety for it's abundance of flowering combined with the bright warm colouration. Supplied at around 3-4ft tall, these are fantastic quality bare root specimens.

Amazing Magnolia tree

Couldn’t believe the size of the box when it arrived. The tree was nearly as tall as me and in great condition, better than some I have seen in garden centres for 3 times the price. I ordered on Saturday and it arrived on Wednesday morning. Very impressed and I will use you again.

Better than expected!!

Ordered the "Black Friday" offer on 24/01/22 - just how long does BF last I ask?? Delivered on 27/01/22 in good packaging. Immediately unboxed to find a larger standard well formed potted tree than I expected, with several albeit still immature buds. I am very satisfied thus far, and will repot when the weather is a little warmer. I hope the tree grows on well with yellow flowers - that is my hope because my last similar purchase was with Thompson and Morgan via QVC - one bare root tree died very soon after and the other turned out to be pink!! Well done to GardeningExpress.
