| Description | A fantastic hybrid, valued for its prolific, very late and long blooming habit. Frost-hardy buds open to large, exquisitely shaped, bright pink blooms with a lemony fragrance, providing a show for up to six weeks in spring, nearly four weeks after other varieties. Deep green foliage follows the flowers in late spring. Deciduous. |
|---|---|
| Bloom Time | Spring |
| Deciduous/Evergreen | Deciduous |
| Special Features | Easy Care |
| Problems/Solutions | Deer Resistant, Rabbit Resistant |
| Growth Rate | Moderate |
| Flower Attributes | Flowers for Cutting, Fragrant, Long Bloom Season, Showy Flowers |
| Flower Color | Pink |
| Foliage Color | Dark Green |
| Companion Plants | Lily-of-the-Valley Shrub (Pieris); Azalea (Azalea); Clethra (Clethra); Hydrangea (Hydrangea); Camellia (Camellia) |
| Care Instructions | Provide deep, nutrient-rich, acidic, well-drained soil; shelter from harsh winter winds. Water deeply, regularly during first few growing seasons to establish extensive root system; once established, reduce frequency. Feed before new growth emerges in early spring. Prune for structure after flowering, and to remove dead or damaged wood. |
| History | This late-blooming hybrid selection is of 'Daybreak' and 'Pink Surprise' parentage. Like Daybreak, Rose Marie is a late-blooming magnolia. Rose Marie has an extended bloom much like that of Pink Surprise, due to secondary flower buds that provide up to a month of bloom. |
| Lore | Late-blooming magnolias are less susceptible to late season frosts that can damage developing buds. |
