Susan Magnolia
Susan Magnolia blossoms in shades of fuchsia and bright pink and has a very nice fragrance.A bushy, upright shrub with large mid-green leaves.

These open to slightly twisted petals which are burgundy on the outside and paler on the inside. A glorious deciduous magnolia that makes a lovely specimen for a small garden with acidic soil.
