About This Plant

Magnolia × soulangeana 'Speciosa' (Saucer Magnolia) is a Hybrid Magnolia, a Asian + N.A. parentage hybrids ornamental cultivar 'Speciosa'.

Hybrid magnolia (often M. soulangeana, Saucer Magnolia, or Loebner-type) with goblet-shaped early-spring flowers in pink, purple, or white. Bloom before leaves emerge.

Plant in full sun to part shade, in humus-rich, well-drained, slightly acidic soil. Hardy USDA Zone 5 to 9. Long-lived. Generally deer-resistant once established.

If you'd like a Pacific Northwest native tree with similar grace, consider Cornus nuttallii (Pacific Dogwood), Acer circinatum (Vine Maple), Arbutus menziesii (Pacific Madrone), or Amelanchier alnifolia (Saskatoon). These provide bird food, pollinator support, and Indigenous food heritage in your landscape.
