Plant that shaped the gardener I am today 

I was a student gardener at Windsor when I first saw Magnolia campbellii mollicomata ‘Lanarth’ in flower. I was so attracted by the purple colour, huge size and poise of its blooms that I wanted to know more about this fabulous group of trees and shrubs, as well as the wealth and diversity of plants in general.
