Star Magnolia

Star Magnolia

Introduction The star magnolia is a rare tree species in China. The one in Longwangtang Reservoir, Lushun, was transplanted from Japan to the reservoir garden in the 1920s and has been there for over 70 years. Among the sea of greenery, this star magnolia stands out as the most beautiful and blooms the earliest, making it a highlight of Lushun’s early spring. From the first budding to the final petal fall, the blooming period lasts about a month, and from afar, it presents a brilliant and splendid sight. Visitors drawn by its fame come in an endless stream.
