Magnolia acuminata x denudata Elisabeth was the first yellow-flowered hybrid magnolia to be widely available, and it is still one of the best. The buds are finely tapered and open to a fragrant primrose yellow flower which are produced from a young age on leafless stems.

Full sun and average moisture suit magnolias best and humus rich soils.
