Magnolia 'Vulcan'
A hybrid magnolia selected for the deep ruby red color of its large, cup-shaped flowers; blooms tend to be more pink on younger plants; a large shrub, or elegant small tree with an upright habit, it makes a fine ornamental specimen for smaller yards.
Vulcan Magnolia is a multi-stemmed deciduous shrub with an upright spreading habit of growth. Its relatively coarse texture can be used to stand it apart from other landscape plants with finer foliage.
This is a relatively low maintenance shrub and should only be pruned after flowering to avoid removing any of the current season's flowers. It has no significant negative characteristics.
Vulcan Magnolia is smothered in stunning fragrant ruby-red cup-shaped flowers with shell pink overtones and white streaks held atop the branches in early spring before the leaves. It has green deciduous foliage. The large pointy leaves turn coppery-bronze in fall.
Vulcan Magnolia will grow to be about 15 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 10 feet. It has a low canopy with a typical clearance of 2 feet from the ground and is suitable for planting under power lines. It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for 50 years or more.
