A magnolia tree with deep colour and early spring presence
The Magnolia ‘Black Tulip’ is chosen for its rich, tulip-shaped flowers and compact, upright form. In early spring, before the leaves appear, deep burgundy blooms open across the branches, bringing a more dramatic tone to the garden.
It is a tree that stands quietly through the year, then becomes a focal point when in flower.
Who this tree is for
This suits gardens where a more defined feature is wanted. It works well in smaller to medium spaces, where its shape and early colour can be appreciated up close.
It is often chosen by those looking for something more distinctive than traditional spring blossom.
Early flowering with a deeper tone
In early spring, large, cup-shaped flowers appear on bare branches. Their deep red to purple colouring creates a strong contrast against the stillness of the season.
As the flowers fade, fresh green leaves emerge, forming a neat canopy through summer before falling in autumn.
Delivery and ordering
Each tree is prepared to order by our specialist growers and is usually dispatched within 7 days. You can also choose a future delivery date if you are planning ahead.
This tree is supplied in its nursery pot and does not include traditional gift wrap. A personal message can be added to your order if required.
Planting and care
Plant in a sunny, sheltered position with well-drained, slightly acidic soil. Protection from strong winds will help preserve the early blossom.
Allow space for the tree to develop its natural shape, where its flowering can be seen clearly each spring.
It arrives established and ready to settle in, with ongoing guidance available through MyTree™ to support it as it grows.
