Lois Magnolia

Lois Magnolia is a small tree or large shrub that produces stunning yellow blossoms in the spring before the leaves come out. The tree blooms for several weeks and appears to be dripping yellow beauty during its peak. The foliage is a rich dark green during the summer. Fall color is a gorgeous copper bronze. Lois Magnolia thrives in full sun to partial shade and moist, well-drained, acidic soil. Since it does not tolerate urban pollution, its usage as a street tree is limited. Lois Magnolia reaches heights of 30'-40' and makes an excellent accent plants for gardens and landscapes with its distinctive pyramidal outline. The somewhat coarse texture of its foliage sets it apart from other trees with a finer foliage texture, making it an attractive companion plant.
