Michelia x foggii 'Bubbles' forms a wide-spreading, pyramidal shape and has glossy, deep-green leaves. Its velvet buds open to slightly fragrant, cream-white, rounded flowers with pink edges in the spring. Michelia x foggii is evergreen, not native to New Zealand, and a hybrid between Michelia figo and Michelia doltsopa. Michelia x foggii was first crossed in 1972 by John Fogg at the Morris Arboretum in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States. Michelia x foggii 'Bubbles' was developed before 2000 by Oswald Blumhardt in Whangārei, 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.
