Description:
Magnolia acuminata, also known as the Cucumber Tree, is a native of the Appalachian region with a pyramidal form that becomes rounded with age. It features greenish-yellow flowers and fruit resembling small cucumbers that turn pinkish-red. This tree attracts songbirds, squirrels, and mice, and prefers moist, deep, acidic soil. Its medium to fast growth rate and unique fruit make it an interesting addition to native plant gardens.
