The tulip magnolia (Magnolia × soulangeana) is a hybrid of the magnolia genus (Magnolia) in the magnolia family (Magnoliaceae). It is a cross between the Chinese Yulan magnolia (Magnolia denudata) and the purple magnolia (Magnolia liliiflora), which also comes from East Asia. The tulip magnolia is the most commonly planted magnolia in Central Europe today, which is why it is simply called "magnolia" without any further addition. The tulip magnolia is a deciduous tree or large shrub that can reach a height of up to 9m. It has a spreading crown on a short and usually crooked trunk.
The wood of the magnolia is medium-hard and medium-heavy. It is easy to work and has a light yellow-green shimmer.
