Magnolia 'Arabian Nights' is a strong, upright, and rounded grower that tends to get larger with age. In the early spring, it produces a profusion of large, bowl-shaped blooms with a rich purple-red color, adding to its visual appeal. Magnolia 'Arabian Nights' is deciduous, not native to New Zealand, and a hybrid between Magnolia 'Sayonara' and Magnolia 'Vulcan'. 'Arabian Nights' was raised by Stuart Robertson in about 2000 at the Auckland Botanic Gardens in Auckland, New Zealand and was named in about 2007.

Foliage

This is a general guide. When a plant flowers, fruits and colours up depends on the climate where you live and on the season. If timing matters, please reach out to our team.

Foliage Type

Evergreen plants retain foliage year-round but still shed and replace some leaves gradually as part of their normal growth cycle, rather than losing them all at once.

Deciduous plants shed all their leaves for part of the year (usually in autumn and winter), usually in response to colder temperatures or dry seasons, often producing seasonal colour before leaf drop.

Semi-evergreen plants sit between the two, keeping most of their foliage but losing some or all leaves briefly under cooler or drier conditions before quickly regrowing them.
