This neat and spreading tree is well-suited for smaller gardens and blooms in mid-spring with large, cup and saucer-shaped flowers. The flowers are a rich-pink color with pale-pink interiors and Magnolia 'Brixton Belle' typically begins flowering in the first year with an abundance of blooms. In some cases, it may have a second flowering during the summer. Magnolia 'Brixton Belle' is deciduous, not native to New Zealand, and a hybrid between Magnolia campbellii 'Sir Harold Hillier' and the hybrid formed between Magnolia x soulangeana 'Sweet Simplicity' and Magnolia 'Black Tulip'. 'Brixton Belle' was raised by Vance Hooper in Brixton, Taranaki, New Zealand and released into commerce by Magnolia Grove in Waitara, Taranaki, New Zealand about 2010.

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.
