"Magnolia Stellata" by Lost Lagoon

            Beautiful Magnolia Stellata, Royal Star, is native to Japan and grows wild in certain parts of the Ise Bay area of central Honshū, Japan’s largest island, at elevations of 50 to 600 m (160 to 1,970 ft). It grows by streamsides and in moist, boggy areas with s other woody plants

After it was introduced to the United States in 1862 by Dr. George Robert Hall (1820-1899), Magnolia stellata has been widely cultivated in much of North America, and is also a commonly grown ornamental in Europe.

It blooms at a young age, with the slightly fragrant flowers covering the bare plant in late winter or early spring before the leaves appear. The flowers are star-shaped, with at least 12 thin, delicate petal-like tepals, some cultivars having more than 30.
