Magnolia 'Butterflies' Cut Flowers The blooms of a crapeThe magnolia 'butterflies' is an amazing specimen tree. It's unusual due to its large yellow tulip shaped blooms that offer the faint scent of lemon. The color reminds me of lemon ice cream and darkens as the blooms mature. In the spring, loads of blooms precede leaves, emerging from large buds with a creamy yellow color that stays strong through the life of the bloom. As the blooms fall from the tree in a shower of pedals, the leaves begin to emerge.
