This magnolia has blooms of 4 to 5 inches in diameter showcasing a rich, yellow hue in late spring.

These blooms are upright, giving the overall effect of butterflies perched upon a branch, thus earning its name.

The warmly colored flowers are both a stunning and eye-catching addition to any garden.

It makes for a great specimen in the landscape!
