Butterflies are one of the most elegant, graceful animals, and this magnolia variety is certainly worthy of that moniker! Producing abundant butter-yellow flowers at the start of spring, 'Butterflies' adds a welcome injection of fresh colour wherever it's planted.
Boasting delicately fragrant flowers and growing to a height of six metres or so, this impressive variety will look beautiful planted as a feature tree at the heart of a lawn or in a spacious flower bed.
Like most magnolias, 'Butterflies' flowers on bare stems, preceding the appearance of foliage. Once the flowers have appeared, elliptical leaves will start to emerge, mid-green in colour, wreathing the tree until they fall in the autumn.
Originally bred in Michigan, USA, this magnolia is one of the earliest varieties to flower and also blooms from a young age.
You might think such showy flowers would be reflective of a high-maintenance plant, but that couldn't be further from the truth!
