Deep Purple-Black Tulip-Shaped Flowers in Early Spring

'Black Tulip' is a stunning deciduous magnolia that produces deep purple-black, tulip-shaped flowers in early spring before the leaves emerge, creating a dramatic and unique floral display. This compact magnolia reaches 10 to 15 feet tall and 8 to 10 feet wide, making it perfect for smaller gardens where you want the beauty of magnolia without overwhelming the space. The dark, velvety blooms are unlike any other magnolia variety, creating a sophisticated focal point in the landscape. Thriving in full sun to partial shade and preferring well-drained, slightly acidic soil, Black Tulip delivers reliable performance with minimal maintenance once established.
