Magnolia 'Coppertallica' is an exceptional new hybrid evergreen resulting from Magnolia foveolata and Magnolia laevifolia. This cultivar is prized for its dramatic appearance, featuring thick, glossy leaves that are dark green above and a radiant copper with a metallic shimmer underneath, creating a captivating visual effect in sunlight. From late spring to summer, it produces abundant, fragrant cream-white saucer-shaped flowers showcasing prominent yellow stamens encircling a striking red eye. Growing to 8-10 feet tall and 3-4 feet wide, it suits small gardens and large containers. Currently under trial for hardiness, it thrives at least to zone 7 and potentially zone 6.
