Kobus magnolia is a medium sized tree that is native to forest areas in Japan. You can find two specimens on the Medford Campus in Court Two. Among magnolias, this is one of the earliest to bloom in spring. The goblet shaped blooms appear before the foliage emerges. The flowers are especially fragrant and a treat for the senses.
Keep an eye out for the blooms which should open the week of March 26!
