Magnolia 'Iolanthe' produces large, bowl-shaped flowers with a pastel lavender-pink color and cream-pink interiors. The flowers have a heavily textured appearance and can be as wide as 28cm. It blooms from an early age and over a long period from early-spring. It sets flowers all along the branches and forms a neat, rounded shape with an open, airy branching habit. Magnolia 'Iolanthe' is deciduous, not native to New Zealand, and a hybrid between Magnolia x soulangeana 'Lennei' and Magnolia 'Mark Jury'. 'Iolanthe' was produced by Felix Jury in New Zealand and introduced in the early 1970s by Duncan & Davies Nurseries in New Plymouth, New Zealand.

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.
