Magnolia sieboldii is a species of Magnolia native to East Asia in China, Japan, and Korea. It is now grown worldwide as an ornamental tree.<br />
Magnolia sieboldii is a wide, multi-stemmed, large shrub or small tree growing 5–10 m tall. The stalks, young leaves, young twigs and young buds are downy. <br />
The leaves are elliptical to ovate-oblong, 9–16 cm (rarely 25 cm) long and 4–10 cm (rarely 12 cm) broad, with a 1.5-4.5 cm petiole.<br />
Magnolia sieboldii flowers open primarily in the early summer but continue intermittently until late summer. They are pendulous, cup-shaped, 7–10 cm diameter, and have 6-12 tepals, the outer three smaller, the rest larger, and are pure white; the carpels are greenish and the prominent stamens are crimson.<br />
After flowering bright red seed pods develop and hang in the tree till ripe.
