Anyone know what the name of this pretty tree is? On our property, and looks so pretty right now.


Thanks,

Kind of hard to tell Dodge, but it looks like a Magnolia.

netty,

Magnolia would not grow in zone 5.........Good guess.

Actually, I've learned recently there are magnolia that will grow in zone 5. Some grow all the way up to Maine. I always associated the tree with the south, but it turns out to have the more cold resistant strains too.

I'm looking at the information I got recently, Magnolia grandiflora is know as Southern Magnolia and is for the warmer zones. There are actually a number of types listed for zone 5. I'll be happy to list them out if you want. I'm fairly new to gardening, so I've been accumulating info. When I saw the magnolia info, I kept it, as I assumed I wouldn't be able to have one up here in New Hampshire. Unfortunately, I can't help to ID the tree in your picture though.

We definitely have magnolia in Maine!

It's too hard to tell what your tree is from that picture, can you get another picture??

We have lots of magnolias here in Z5

Yours looks like a shadblow too
can you get a picture of the flower straight on?
Shadblows are blooming now.

i agree Amelanchier arborea

Dodge-I'm in zone 5 and (at work) we have a gorgeous magnolia!!

Netty
