Description
Ricki Magnolia is a hardy hybrid perfect for Massachusetts gardens, featuring rich purple cup-shaped blooms in early spring. The fragrant flowers emerge before the leaves, creating a striking contrast against its dark green foliage. In fall, its leaves turn a lovely copper-bronze, adding seasonal interest.
This small, upright shrub is an excellent choice for foundation plantings or as a specimen in gardens. With its rounded form and coarse texture, Ricki Magnolia stands out among finer-leaved plants. It thrives in full sun to partial shade, making it a versatile and resilient choice.
