<\/b>Magnolia stellata<\/i>, sometimes called the star magnolia,<\/b> is a slow-growing <\/font>shrub<\/font><\/a> or small <\/font>tree<\/font><\/a> native to <\/font>Japan<\/font><\/a>.<\/font> <\/div>\n

It bears large, showy white or pink <\/font>flowers<\/font><\/a> in early spring, before its leaves open.\u00a0<\/font>\u00a0<\/div>\n
This species is closely related to the Kobushi magnolia (Magnolia kobus<\/a><\/i>), and is treated by many botanists as a variety or even a <\/font>cultivar<\/font><\/a> of that. However, Magnolia stellata<\/i> was accepted as a distinct species in the 1998 monograph by Hunt.[1]<\/font><\/a><\/sup><\/font>\u00a0<\/div>\n
This tree grows 4.6 to 6 m (15 to 20 ft) in height, spreading to 4.6m<\/font> in width at maturity. Young trees display upright oval growth, but the plants spread and mound with age.[2]<\/font><\/a><\/sup><\/font><\/div>\n
The tree blooms at a young age, with the slightly fragrant 7\u201310 cm (3\u20134 in) <\/font>flowers<\/font><\/a> covering the bare plant in late winter or early spring before the leaves appear. There is natural variation within the flower color, which varies from white to rich pink; the hue of pink magnolias also changes from year to year, depending on day and night air temperatures prior to and during flowering. The flowers are star-shaped, with at least 12 thin, delicate petal-like <\/font>tepals<\/font><\/a>\u2014some cultivars have more than 30. The leaves open bronze-green, turning to deep green as they mature, and yellow before dropping in autumn. They are oblong and about 4 in (10 cm) long by about an 1.5 in (4 cm) wide.<\/font><\/div>\n
These magnolias produce a reddish-green, knobby aggregate <\/font>fruit<\/font><\/a> about 2 in long that matures and opens in early autumn. Mature fruit opens by slits to reveal orange-red <\/font>seeds<\/font><\/a>, but the fruits often drop before developing fully.<\/font><\/div>\n
Young twigs have smooth, shiny chestnut brown bark, while the main trunks have smooth, silvery gray bark. Like the <\/font>saucer magnolia<\/font><\/a> (Magnolia<\/i> \u00d7 soulangeana),<\/i> it is <\/font>deciduous<\/font><\/a>, revealing a twiggy, naked frame in winter. Plants have thick, fleshy roots which are found fairly close to the surface and do not tolerate much disturbance.<\/font><\/div>\n
