Magnolia 'Heaven Scent' Magnolia 'Heaven Scent'

'Heaven Scent' is a small to medium-sized tree with a broad oval, later more rounded crown. The tree grows about 4 to 6 m tall and eventually almost as wide. The leaves of this deciduous cultivar are a healthy dark green. Narrow tulip-shaped flowers open in April, rising like broad candles on the twigs. The flowers are lilac-pink and reddish purplish pink towards the base. The flowers do not fall open, even when out of bloom. 'Heaven Scent' flowers very richly and already at a young age. This makes it a particularly striking Magnolia. Was introduced in the 1960s by American breeder Todd Gresham. Hardiness zone 6.
Our trees can only be planted when they don't have any leaves. Due to the this we will start delivering again from November 2025.
