Magnolia denudata, Magnolia heptapeta, Yulan magnolia or Hakumokuren (scientific name: Magnolia denudata, Synonyms:Magnolia heptapeta ) is a native to China and is a deciduous small tall tree of thefamily Magnoliaceae. Before the new leaves of spring come out, it makes bloom many white oval flowers on the branch tip. A bud that has been wrapped in silver hair from the previous year will flower with the spring.

The flower color is white on both the inside and the outside of the petals, and the sepals are the same, so it is not possible to distinguish between sepals and sepals.
