Daybreak Magnolia
Delightfully fragrant, award-winning Magnolia ‘Daybreak’ is a small deciduous tree adorned with rose-pink flowers in mid to late spring. Emerging with a light green cast, the large flowers, up to 10 in. across (25 cm), count 8 splayed-out tepals which are lighter on the inside. Since they bloom late enough, they usually escape early spring frost damage. The elliptic, medium-green foliage is attractive. ‘Daybreak’ is pollution tolerant, making it an excellent specimen and urban tree.
Magnolia belongs to the Magnoliaceae family, which includes several popular species such as the Southern Magnolia (Magnolia grandiflora), Star Magnolia (Magnolia stellata), Saucer Magnolia (Magnolia × soulangeana), and Sweetbay Magnolia (Magnolia virginiana).
