Definitions
- sheet one shows a tree that is about seven years old and about ten to twelve feet tall
- sheet two shows front and back sides of a young leaf in the upper view and the front and back sides of a mature leaf in the lower view, the front side being at the left and the colors being as close to those specified as is reasonably possible to obtain by conventional photographic procedures.
- Branching Numerous and closely spaced diverging at an angle of approximately 45° from the central trunk. The branches sweep back toward the trunk, however, and grow almost parallel for a distance creating a dense, compact crown which is totally atypical for a young Southern magnolia, although fifteen year old plants have maintained this same secondary branching orientation.
- the development of five to seven secondary branches in a growth flush results in a very dense, compact plant all the way to ground level.
- a second flush of growth develops from the first flush in July yielding four to five additional breaks which in a single growing season may mean as many as twenty to thirty-five breaks.
- Foliage The leaves are evergreen and alternate, firmly coriaceous in texture and of obovate-oblong or elliptical shape, the size being from four to seven and one-half inches long and two to three inches wide with entire margins and undulating surface.
- the petioles are stout, pubescent, and about one-half to one inch long.
- Buds that are terminal of the stem are large, about one inch long, slightly curved, and covered by a single ensheathing scale which has a rusty brown silky pubescence. Lateral buds are smaller, about one-eighth inch long, borne singly above the leaf scar, ovoid in shape and with brownish pubescence.
- Each flower is borne singly at the end of a branch, is about four inches in diameter, and is composed of nine petals that are tightly overlapping in bud and open to a cup-shaped configuration.
- the flower color is creamy white and very pleasingly fragrant.
- Flowering is initiated in mid to late May and continuous into early July on a sustained basis, after which sporadic flowers occur throughout the growing season.
- the fruit is aggregate of follicles that are ovoid in shape and borne singly at the end of the branch, each averaging about two to two and one-half inches long and one to one and one-half inches wide.
- the fruits turn rose pink to rose red in early September and remain colorful into October; the seeds are oval in shape and are one-quarter to three-eighths inch long covered with a red aril. They naturally dehisce from the follicles in September-October and are attached by a string-like funicular stalk.
- the outstanding characteristics of my new variety of magnolia grandiflora which distinguish it from other varieties of Southern magnolia and all others, reside in its overall very dense and pyramidal appearance enlightened by the light green color of its new leaves that changes to a lustrous dark green color at maturity.
- the young leaves have a brownish under side which becomes rusty brown as the leaves mature and the combination of the light and dark green leaves with the brownish under side coloring provides a very attractive and pleasing color variegation for the overall and almost solid appearance of the entire tree.
- the four inch diameter creamy white flowers are very much smaller than the eight to twelve inch normal flower of the species and the flowers are borne in the first and second year of growth on plants grown from cuttings. In the fifth and sixth year, the plant displays extreme floriferous qualities and is infinitely superior to plants grown from seed which may take as long as fifteen to twenty years to flower.
- the fruit is about half the size and is not as obtrusive or messy as the relatively large fruit of the species.
- the compact, pyramidal-oval crown of my new magnolia selection is more upright than is typical of most Southern magnolias which tend to a more broad-pyramid and more open crown, especially in youth.
- the straight central trunk even in youth, strongly supports the secondary branches and results in a tree that requires no staking.
- My new magnolia grandiflora is easy to root from cuttings collected in July and early August which assures trueness-to-type and the rapid growth rate under normal fertilizer and moisture conditions, together with its very abundant branch development, assures that the plant will always maintain a very dense habit.
