Magnolia Collection
A description of the Hoyt Arboretum's Magnolia Collection and a listing of all the plants therein.
The magnolias are Hoyt Arboretum's most diverse and well-developed flowering tree family. In the Magnolia area you can find familiar species and cultivars from the United States and Europe and lesser known and more distant cousins from Asia, all growing side by side.
Hoyt's first magnolias – Magnolia acuminata (cucumber tree), Magnolia grandiflora (southern magnolia), and Magnolia soulangeana (saucer magnolia) – were planted in 1934. Some early magnolia plantings were gifts from the Portland Garden Club. Beginning in 1955, the Portland Men's Garden Club planted a new magnolia tree each year, helping to gradually build the collection.
Over the years a number of lesser known magnolias and magnolia family species have been added. Many of these are evergreen and some extend the flowering season into mid-summer. Plant enthusiasts will find the largest public collection of magnolias in Oregon, all well-labeled and accessible.
