Magnolia Yellow Bird Pavel http://blog.janik.cz/archives/2013/05/14/magnolia_yellow_bird/index.html 2013-05-14T21:28:21+02:00 2013-05-14T21:28:21+02:00
No near-surface freeze in the morning, so wooohoo!

Magnolia 'Yellow Bird' (M. x brooklynensis 'Eva Maria' x M. acuminata var. subcordata) opened its first flower this year:



This is one of the best yellow magnolias (my favourite together with Daphne which will show its flowers in a few days).
Magnolia Summer Solstice flower buds Pavel http://blog.janik.cz/archives/2013/05/13/magnolia_summer_solstice_flower_buds/index.html 2013-05-13T20:00:00+02:00 2013-05-13T20:00:00+02:00
Magnolia Summer Solstice (I bought it last year) survived our winter (-22 C this year) with no damage and shows three big flower buds.

The weather forecast predicts low temperatures for tomorrow morning, even near-surface freeze, so... Hopefully this will be the last cold spell in this wonderful "Magnolia" year.

Magnolia x brooklynensis "Woodsman" Pavel http://blog.janik.cz/archives/2013/05/04/magnolia_x_brooklynensis_woodsman/index.html 2013-05-04T21:51:08+02:00 2013-05-04T21:51:08+02:00
This is one of my favourite magnolias. First flowered in 1972 for Joe McDaniel and I will put it in our garden tomorrow (should weather allow it). Finally! Even my wife enjoys it.

Every magnolia rocks in some phase of the flower Pavel http://blog.janik.cz/archives/2013/04/26/every_magnolia_rocks_in_some_phase_of_the_flower/index.html 2013-04-26T12:32:15+02:00 2013-04-26T12:32:15+02:00
... even Magnolia "Sunrise". It looks too over-designed when in flower, but look at the flower bud. How magic.



New magnolia growers... Pavel http://blog.janik.cz/archives/2013/03/21/new_magnolia_growers/index.html 2013-03-21T20:23:48+02:00 2013-03-21T20:23:48+02:00
There are more magnolia friends I ever thought...



The news was printed in the MF Dnes and comes from AP.

Interesting to know that it IS possible to import plants even to countries, that do not allow that. Just put it in the plastic bag and wait for the inspection from agriculture ministry...

Magnolia March Till Frost flowers again Pavel http://blog.janik.cz/archives/2012/08/15/magnolia_march_till_frost_flowers_again/index.html 2012-08-15T11:09:17+02:00 2012-08-15T11:09:17+02:00
M. March Till Frost (sometimes called as M. May To Frost, selected 1997 and introduced 1999 by Dr. August Kehr) set one more flower this season.

New magnolia in the garden Pavel http://blog.janik.cz/archives/2012/06/08/new_magnolia_in_the_garden/index.html 2012-06-08T20:51:10+02:00 2012-06-08T20:51:10+02:00
Today, I bought a new magnolia for our garden. Magnolia Summer Solstice, selected by Maurice Foster in 1994, is assumed to be a hybrid of M. globosa and M. obovata, both part of Oyama section of Magnolia genus.

One of the flower buds even started to open later today after short rain.
