The Little Girl magnolias are 'Susan', 'Jane', 'Ann', and 'Betty', with the last two usually regarded as being the best of the lot. 'Ann' has reddish purple flowers and 'Betty' has purple-red outer petals that fade to a white inside. There're pretty good cultivars that bloom a little later than most star magnolias. 'Royal Star' is more late-blooming than other stellatas. Here's a photo of 'Jane'.

All of the Little Girl aka Little Sisters magnolias grow to about 10' X 6', but can be kept pruned smaller of course.
