Description
Magnolia 'Shirazz' has large purplish-pink flowers on bare wood from March to April. This compact, deciduous shrub with an upright habit fits easily into a small city garden. It can also be planted as a specimen, not far from the house, to fully enjoy its spectacular flowering. Grafted onto Magnolia kobus, it is more tolerant of soil and shows quicker flowering.
Belonging to the Magnoliaceae family, 'Shirazz' is also marketed under the name 'Vulden'. This cultivar follows in the line of 'red/magenta' magnolias from the New Zealand hybridisation programmes of the Jury family; its parentage includes Magnolia denudata (Yulan magnolia, a Chinese species) and the horticultural hybrid 'Vulcan'. The name 'Vulden' recalls this lineage (VULcan × DENudata).
The habit of this shrub is naturally erect, narrowly conical, vase-shaped, with regular ascending branching. In open ground, this variety reaches up to 4 m in height and 2.50 m in spread at maturity. It flowers from March to April, depending on the region. The flowers, first in the shape of an upright tulip, open into a goblet shape. They measure 18 to 22 cm in diameter. Their colour is not a true red, but rather a strong purplish magenta on the outside, with a paler inside, washed with lilac. The intensity of the colour may vary with temperature and sunlight. The foliage is deciduous: leaves obovate to ovate, 10 to 15 cm long, medium green, appearing after or at the end of flowering. The young shoots are brown-grey, smooth, with large flower buds protected by silky bracts. The hardiness of this magnolia is rated at −15°C, but its buds are sensitive to late frosts.
Place Magnolia 'Shirazz' as a specimen near a patio or in a part of the garden sheltered from easterly winds. In a bed of non-limestone soil, combine it with large camellias such as 'China Lady' and 'Tulip Time' and Hydrangea paniculata 'Limelight' and 'Vanille Fraise' for their beautiful summer flowering. Add an Acer palmatum 'Orange Dream' for its light and colourful foliage from spring to autumn. You can plant a carpet of daffodils or hellebore at the base of your shrubs.
Rootstock and advantages of grafting. The plants sold are usually grafted onto Magnolia kobus; more rarely onto M. × soulangeana, depending on the batch. The rootstock has no dwarfing effect. It provides good hardiness, reliable rooting, increased tolerance to less acidic and humus-rich soils and quicker flowering. Keep the graft union above soil level and remove any suckers arising below the graft to prevent the rootstock from taking over.

Planting and care
Magnolia 'Shirazz' needs a few hours of direct sun; grow it in full sun or partial shade, but not in full shade. Plant it sheltered from cold winds in moist, rich, deep, well-drained soil that is neutral or slightly acid and low in lime. Mulch the Magnolia to prevent it from freezing during severe spring frosts, especially young plants. Water it for the first two years, then during drought or intense heat. As it grows, rainwater will be enough.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
