Dennis Sons of Tn Nursery Reviews states: “The Cucumber Magnolia Tree or Magnolia Acuminata is a very low-maintenance, adaptable tree

It is also one of the most unique within its species”. The Cucumber Magnolia is the largest and the cold hardiest of the eight magnolia species that are native to the United States. The leaves on this magnificent tree range from 6 to 10 inches long and are dark green in the summer months before turning yellow in the fall. In early summer this tree starts to bloom with petite creamy yellow flowers, high up in the tree. The flowers give way to the green fruit which gives this tree its name. While green this fruit resembles a cucumber but as it ripens, it turns a striking orange to red hue. The bright red seeds within this fruit are a favorite among songbirds and squirrels.
