Magnolia sieboldii are flowers with crimson-purple centres that are richly scented and cup-shaped, and make a stunning display. From May to July, and possibly into August, the plant is covered in these lovely, gently nodding flowers. In the autumn, crimson fruit clusters appear. This deciduous, slow-growing shrub ultimately becomes a spreading tree in the UK, so give it plenty of room. Before the flowers, oval-elliptic dark green leaves with a paler grey-green underside and downy undersides appear. Magnolia sieboldii blooms and buds later than many Magnolia species. Height and spread: to 6m (20').
