Halesia diptera Magniflora
Common Name: Big-flowered Silverbell
Halesia diptera ‘Magniflora’ is a superior selection of Two-winged Silverbell valued for its larger, more abundant flowers and refined form. Glossy green leaves emerge in spring, followed by heavy clusters of large, bell-shaped white flowers in mid to late spring that hang beneath the branches, creating a showy display, and foliage turns soft yellow in fall. Its graceful habit and enhanced flowering make it an excellent specimen for woodland and naturalistic landscapes.
